Giving Back

Making the world a softer place… one hug at a time.

A stuffed animal is more than just a toy — it’s an expression of love that creates lifelong memories. Here at GUND, we want kids around the world to experience all the joy and imagination childhood has to offer. To that end, we’re proud to partner with reputable children’s charities that make a positive difference in their communities.



Buy A Hug Give A Hug

Buy A Hug Give A Hug

GUND's Buy A Hug, Give A Hug program helped spread love to children in need. Beginning in 2017, each purchase of our iconic white 10" Snuffles bear, put a plush toy in a child's hands through a reputable children's charity.





How Do You Hug

#HowDoYouHug

#HowDoYouHug transformed expressions of love into real-world comfort for children in need. With each milestone reached by spreading joy on social media, GUND donated stuffed animals to charitable organizations. Over 100,000 hugs were shared!
