National Hugging Day 2025: 20+ wishes, images, messages, WhatsApp and Facebook statuses to share with loved ones
National Hugging Day 2025: A hug is an embrace of affection and love. It speaks volumes, without saying anything at all. When we hug the ones we love, we feel the silent embrace of support, resilience and attention. Every year, National Hugging Day is celebrated in the US. It is a call for people to express their emotions and let their loved ones know that they are valued, seen, loved and heard.

Every year, National Hugging Day is observed on January 21. On March 29, 1986, in Caro, Michigan, Rev. Kevin Zaborney founded National Hugging Day as a day to be specifically dedicated to urge people to express their emotions openly.
As we gear up to observe the special day on Tuesday, it’s important that we remember to hug it out with the ones we love and care about. But, for the ones who stay far away from us, we can send them virtual hugs in the form of messages, wishes and images to let them know that when there’s love, distance is just another word.
