Hug Day

National Hug Day or National Hugging Day is an annual event created by Kevin Zaborney. USA.[1][2] It occurs on March 3rd but is not a public holiday. The day was launched on March 3rd, 1986 in Caro, Michigan, USA.[3] There are reports of it being marked in some other countries.[4][5][6] The idea of National Hug Day is to encourage everyone to hug family and friends more often.[1] Zaborney cautions to ask first if one is unsure of the response. Whether you hug a family member or a friend or a stranger, the mental and physical health benefits are the same.
