I discovered from Oliver Ding that is a Free Hug campaign going on. Juan Mann started it with a mission to reach out and hug strangers to brighten up their lives.
Read his story to find out how it all started and watch this video of Juan Mann in action.
There is a Hindu spiritual leader, Mata Amritanandamayi, who is also known as 'Amma' or the 'hugging saint'. So, for those who may think it is inappropriate to hug strangers, do it for spiritual connection.
Find out when and where the next free hug event will be organised and see if you can take part in it. You can also create your own freehugs movement. Just use its FORUM (link currently broken) to recruit volunteers in your area.
Their advise, which you should take note of, is that you make sure that you will not get into trouble with the local laws to start your Hugathon! Need the inspiration to start? Watch more videos of this movement initiated in other countries.
