Why I Started HeroHugs

Long nights alone while my fiancé works 72-hour shifts inspired me to create HeroHugs; weighted comfort plushies designed to feel like a hug from your favorite hero. For first responder families, kids, spouses, and anyone who misses their person… these are for you.

Weighted. Soft. Comforting. Purpose-built for first responder families.
