Help Us Build the First Portable Hug Stand for Regen World 2025!
Bringing Healing Hugs to the World, One Embrace at a Time
Hello, beautiful souls!

We are on a mission to raise the vibration of humanity through the simple yet powerful act of hugging—and we need your help to build the first-ever Healing Hug Stand for Regen World 2025 in Austin, TX!

This stand will be a sanctuary for human connection, a place where people can receive healing hugs, release stress, and experience the magic of heart-to-heart connection. This is the first step toward our larger vision: taking this Hug Stand global as part of the iHuG Healing Hugs Tour, where we aim to give and receive 100,000 hugs across 12 countries.

But first, we need to make it real.

The Hug Stand: A Portal to Love & Connection
Imagine a beautifully designed, welcoming Hug Stand—a space where strangers become friends and hearts open through the simplest yet most powerful act: a hug.

A Portable Hug Haven: A cozy, open-air structure inspired by a lemonade stand, but instead of selling drinks, we’re giving love freely.

A Hub for Healing: Participants will be invited to experience a 20-second healing hug—proven to reduce stress, boost oxytocin (the love hormone), and create a profound sense of connection.

A Vibrant Activation: The Hug Stand will be playful, inviting, and interactive, featuring hug challenges, intention-setting, and community storytelling.

A Movement That Grows: This is just the beginning. The Hug Stand will travel beyond Regen World, creating a ripple effect of healing and connection across the globe.

Why Regen World?
Regen World is the perfect place to debut the Healing Hug Stand—an event bringing together visionary leaders, heart-centered changemakers, and regenerative thinkers who are building a brighter, more connected future for humanity.

By setting up the Hug Stand at Regen World, we will:
Share healing hugs with thousands of attendees
Capture testimonials and impact stories to document the power of healing touch
Host interactive Hug Games & challenges to inspire deeper human connection
Attract sponsors and supporters to take the Hug Stand to global events

**This is our chance to introduce the world to the healing power of hugs—**and we need your support to make it happen!

What Your Support Will Fund
To make this vision real, we need to raise $15,000 to cover:

️ Building the Hug Stand – Materials, design, and setup
Branded Signage & Marketing Materials – A beautiful and inviting aesthetic
iHuG Shirts & Gifts – So participants can carry the hug movement forward
️ Professional Video & Photography – To document the impact and spread the love
Travel & Logistics – Transporting the Hug Stand and our team to Regen World

This first Hug Stand will serve as a prototype for future stands at events worldwide. By supporting this campaign, you’re helping create a movement that will expand far beyond Regen World—inspiring connection at festivals, cities, and communities around the world.

Beyond Hugs: Building the Love Economy & Launching iHuG Coin
This movement is bigger than just hugs—it’s about creating a new way of exchanging energy, love, and support.

We are pioneering the Love Economy, where kindness, connection, and healing are valued just as much as traditional currencies.

As part of this future vision, we will be launching iHuG Coin, a digital currency that rewards and incentivizes acts of love, generosity, and healing. Imagine a world where giving a hug, sharing a meal, or offering a helping hand earns you a tangible token of appreciation—a new economy built on abundance and reciprocity.

✨ Your support for this campaign is an investment in a future where love is currency, and healing is accessible to all.

The Personal Story That Started It All
In 2022, shortly after the pandemic, I attended Burning Man in Black Rock City, Nevada. The world had been through a time of isolation—masks, distancing, and uncertainty about physical connection. In that moment, I felt called to break the barrier of disconnection.

As an avid hugger since my earliest days holding tightly to my mother, I introduced myself to strangers by saying, "I'm Christa, and I hug." That simple statement became my Burner name (iHuG)—and soon, my mission.

I made it my goal to hug as many people on “The Playa” as possible. What I witnessed was beyond anything I could have imagined. Grown men collapsed in my arms, weeping. People who hadn’t been hugged in years melted into a moment of deep healing.

It was then that I realized—this wasn’t just about me. This was about humanity remembering our innate power to heal ourselves and each other through loving, non-sexual physical touch.

From that moment on, I knew that healing hugs were my purpose. And now, we are taking this mission around the world.

The Vision: A Hug Stand that Travels the World
To make this movement tangible, we are building a portable “Healing Hugs Stand”—a beautiful, welcoming space where people can come together, hug, share stories, and feel seen. Imagine a lemonade stand, but for hugs—a place where love is freely given, and community is cultivated.

This stand will be set up at major global gatherings, festivals, and public spaces where people are seeking connection, joy, and healing.

Eventually, we envision thousands of hug stands and volunteers for the movement healing eachother around the world, contributing to the largest LOVE community and building a LOVE economy.

Together, we will:
Travel to spread love and hugs around the world
Give and receive 100,000 hugs to heal and uplift spirits
Create pop-up Hug Stands at events, parks, and city squares
Build a Global Love Community—a movement that outlives this tour and continues spreading joy
