The television network Cuatro is carrying out a solidarity campaign with the message "We all need a hug". Hugo's cushion-scarf has the shape of arms, so you can wrap in a tender hug.
Already in itself this kind of fluffy scarf is beautiful, but if it also has a solidarity background just convinced me. The benefits of the sale of Hugo are intended to build a Tibetan Health and Research Center in the Himalayas. Children are fundamental recipients of the proposed improvements:
- Improve the quality of life of families and children
- Provide medical assistance to patients
- Promote education as a stimulus for social change
- Promote social inclusion
Jesús Calleja, the popular protagonist of the "Extreme Challenge" program, not only sponsors him, but has personally been involved in this solidarity project. I think it's a beautiful initiative to highlight.
From the Cuatro website you can read a beautiful story, "Hugo's story" with some great and very short illustrations, starring the huggable Hugo. Surely your little children like it. It starts this way:
Hugo is a hug that came from the distant blue glass island, where all the hugs live. His friend the dolphin helped him cross the ocean ...
The project is managed by the Vistare Foundation, and the cushion can be purchased at El Corte Inglés, OpenCor, HiperCor and Super Cor (more than 350 points of sale). The price of the Hugo solidarity cushion is 11.95 euros.
