A charity . . . with a side hustle

Hugs through Shrugs is a 501(c)3 charity based in New Jersey, building a community supporting moms with critically ill hospitalized children and those whose lives have been affected by pediatric cancer.

Our signature shrugs wrap these moms in our love.

Our side hustle funds our mission.

Whether you knit or crochet for us or support us through our "fiber fundraising", you are helping let these warrior moms know that their journeys are not invisible.

100% of all sales fund our mission

Gilded Age Yarns & Shawls

Every non-profit needs funding. What better way to raise money for a charity that knits and crochets than selling yarn! Our Gilded Age Yarn and Shawl collection is made up of handpainted skeins and shawls individually dyed “with love".

The Izzy Foundation

We are excited to be collaborating with The Izzy Foundation, the newest addition to our giving list. We recently shipped Shrug Hugs to be handed out to all 40 moms currently staying on the pediatric oncology floor at Hasbro Children's Hospital in Providence, RI. Moving forward we will automatically ship Shrug Hugs each month so every new mom receiving the entry code to this comforting space will also receive some extra love and support from our makers.

If you are near or visiting Newport, Rhode Island, please shop these local businesses who support our mission!

We are excited and honored to partner with Momcology helping to support the moms they serve. Momcology is a nationwide organization providing peer support through group gatherings and retreats for moms battling or who have lost their children to pediatric cancer.

Please help wrap some love around these moms!

With your support, we will be able to continue adding other distribution channels to our giving list. Partnering with other charities that share our mission has proven to be a rewarding and direct path to reach the moms we serve.
