Do you believe every child needs a hug?

Hugaroo, Inc. began as a gesture of love and caring that blossomed through a Girl Scout Gold Award project in 2005. From inspired beginnings resembling Adam's Animals and through the dedicated work of Jenna Harper Thrasher, in memory of her sister Morgan who succumbed to cancer at 17, Hugaroo endeavors to provide stuffed animals to children where and when they need them most. Hugaroo begins 2021 by delivering 14,583 stuffed animals (hugs) to children program to date. They have found great comfort in having a stuffed animal to hug and keeping them company throughout their recovery and treatments. As a new non-profit in 2007, Hugaroo, Inc. continues to operate in Charlotte, NC, Richmond, VA , SC LOWCOUNTRY, Denver, Colorado and Georgia. We expect to more than double our best delivery year of 2020 for 3,255 hugs for all of Hugaroo, Inc. Thank you for your continuing support!
