Since his friend died in the World Trade Center attacks on September 11, 2001, David Sylvester adopted a mission to enhance the world one interaction at a time. To that end, he bicycled and gave charitable service in: North America 2002 - Washington State to Philadelphia Africa 2004 - Cairo to Cape Town Asia 2007 - Istanbul to Beijing North America 2008 - San Diego to NYC North America 2011 - Minneapolis to NYC Australia 2015 - Sydney to Melbourne Unable to bicycle in 2016, "Big Dave"- as he is known - continued his mission via a car and staged Hug Events in 31 states - making it a point to visit places touched by violence like San Bernardino, OKC, Chicago, Cleveland, and Orlando the Pulse Nightclub . The previous year's warmth prompted him to hug people at the "literal" heart/center of the nation in Lebanon, KS, on Valentine's Day 2017. Later in 2017, he continued with Hug and High5 Tour of America and hugged 14K people in 48 states . The experience was fantastic and must have touched a lot of people's hearts because when the shootings in Las Vegas and Sutherland Springs, Texas , occurred - people said, "Dave get down there and hug people." And he did. Since then, he's staged hug tours throughout Alaska, Europe, and Israel. And even did a 48 state goodwill tour during the pandemic just to create more smiles in the world. That's the story! David Hale Sylvester is just a guy who wants the world to smile and has embraced 500,000] people in 50 states and 42 countries in 20 years
