Adam King releases charity ‘Hug for You’ cards to bring ‘much-needed joy’ to people for Valentine’s Day

Adam and the King family are sharing his touching design in a card form ahead of Valentine’s Day to give the nation a hug and to raise funds for two charities close to his own heart

A young boy who stole the nation’s heart with his paper drawing of one will see his artwork sold in card shops around the country.

Adam King’s handmade heart sign offering virtual hugs was first seen on The Late Late Toy Show and has since become a symbol for hope during the pandemic. First, it became an An Post stamp on our Christmas cards and letters, now it’s in card form and raising funds for two charities.
