Young Society Initiative celebrated "International Free Hugging Day" in Izmir on 22nd of march 2008. Young Society Initiative co-organised Free Hugs Campaign in the entrance of Kıbrıs Sehitleri Caddesi, Izmir together with the volunteers of Couch Surfing and Hospitality Club.
The Free Hugs Campaign is a social movement involving individuals who offer hugs to strangers in public places. Founded in Sydney, Australia by Juan Mann in June 2004, the campaign was widely publicized in 2006 by a music video on YouTube by the Australian band Sick Puppies. The campaign is an example of a random act of kindness, a selfless act performed by a person for the sole reason of making others feel better by sharing goodwill, peace and friendship.
Young Society Society thanks all the young volunteers who have the courage to share their love with the others...
