Welcome! Thank you for visiting our site.

Quantum Hugs, a non-profit organization was formed in memory of my husband, John Collins. John and I always believed we were soul mates, meant to be together forever. Unfortunately, all that changed in May, 2010, when John passed away suddenly. Born out of my devastating loss was a deep desire to do something to keep his memory alive.

The idea of a little doing a lot and paying it forward was something that John and I had a great interest in. In quantum physics, a quanta is the smallest amount of physical energy that can exist independently, yet it is full of potential.

In our organization, a quantum hug is the ability to do what may seem like a little, yet has amazing far-reaching effects, such as:

• Sponsoring an assistance dog for someone who is wheelchair bound, and thereby making their life and those around them, so much more joyful and livable.
• Starting a scholarship fund for nurses and not only help someone get the education he or she always wanted but also enable them to touch the lives of others in infinite ways.
• Contributing to a Phoenix doctor's healthmobile as he delivers needed healthcare to homeless and at-risk children via his Mobile Medical Unit.

While Quantum Hugs may never know the results of all its efforts it is important to begin making a positive difference now - one life at a time.

Come take the first steps with us. Navigate our website and get to know the people who make up our organization. Then join us in carrying out Quantum Hug's mission.

While the world is a magical place of love and wonder for millions, there are many who know no joy. Modern technology is now able to draw us closer together, thus making it easier to know first-hand of the hardships many face. . . Quantum Hugs' intent is to reach out and help more of those in need - one life at a time. Please read the brief story of one little boy's unselfish and humble act of kindness.
