Sometimes, a hug is all we need. FREE HUGS is a real life controversial story of Juan Mann, a man whos sole mission is to reach out and hug a stranger to brighten up their lives.

** Jacob Fisher brought the FREE HUGS campaign to the heartland (Lincoln, NE). He hugged over 150 people in just a couple hours, and shared the story of Juan Mann with many. The response to the FREE HUGS in Lincoln was nothing short of overwhelming. **

HISTORY:
In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human contact, the effects of the Free Hugs Campaign became phenomenal.

As this symbol of human hope spread across the city (Sydney, AUS), police and officials ordered the Free Hugs Campaign BANNED. What we then witness is the true spirit of humanity -- coming together in what can only be described as awe inspiring.

In the Spirit of the Free Hugs Campaign, PASS THIS TO A FRIEND and HUG A STRANGER! After all, if you can reach just one person...
