Don’t Miss the First Drop

One tiny heart. One big mission.

Hug Nug started with a single heart, stitched from a too-loved-to-donate stuffed animal. Today, it’s a movement — giving anyone something they can carry when love, comfort, or courage is needed.

Designed to go where full-sized stuffies can’t, each Hug Nug is made from upcycled or sustainable materials and filled with serious intention. It’s a pocket-sized reminder that soft things can be strong too.

Every purchase funds the donation of a full-sized stuffed animal to someone in foster care, shelters, or facing a tough moment — because comfort shouldn't come with conditions.

Every Hug Nug gives a full-sized stuffed animal to a child in need.


One tiny heart = one big hug passed forward.

Why Hug Nug?

For big feelings in places no stuffy can go.

Rescue Love

Some stuffies are too loved to donate, but too full of heart to throw away.


Over 1.3 million stuffed animals end up in landfills each year.* Hug Nug gives those forgotten hugs a second life.

What’s Inside

This isn’t your average stuffy.
Hug Nug is tiny, stashable, and drop-limited, made to go everywhere big plushies can’t.


First days, sleepovers, courtrooms, hospital visits… even deep space (okay, maybe not yet, NASA).


It’s a soft reminder that love goes with you.

What’s Next for Hug Nug?

As Hug Nug grows, we’re developing our own line of sustainably made comfort hearts. Our mission stays the same: giving kids something soft to hold onto when the world feels too big.

A Hug Nug is a pocket-sized comfort plush, handmade from upcycled stuffed animals. Each one is filled with love and designed to bring emotional support during big feelings, new beginnings, or tough days.

 

Every Hug Nug helps us donate a brand-new stuffed animal to a child in need—in foster care, shelters, or hospitals.

 

Great for:

  • First days of school

  • Birthdays & hospital visits

  • Sleepaway camp, NICU journeys, and more

 

Because sometimes all you need is something small to hold, and someone who cares.
