How Volunteering Works

  • Create a free volunteer account to get access to everything you need to participate.

    Once you sign up, you’ll be able to:

    • View donation guidelines and approved items

    • Access size guides and project ideas

    • Track your volunteer hours

    • Submit donation forms and request shipping labels

    Your account is your central hub for volunteering with Loops for Smiles.

  • Decide what items you’d like to create using our donation guidelines.

    We accept a variety of handmade items such as:

    • Blankets, scarves, and beanies

    • Plushies and comfort items

    • Seasonal or themed creations

    You’ll find recommended sizes, materials, and ideas inside your volunteer portal.
    You have full creative freedom as long as items are clean, safe, and made with care.

  • Create your items on your own time, from anywhere.

    There are no minimum requirements.

    We encourage volunteers to focus on quality, comfort, and durability so each piece can truly make an impact.

  • After completing your items, log your volunteer hours through your account.

    This allows us to:

    • Track your contributions

    • Provide verified volunteer hours

    • Issue certificates upon request

    You can log hours at any time and update them as you continue volunteering.

  • Once your items are ready, submit a donation form through your account.

    From there:

    • You’ll receive shipping instructions

    • Or request a prepaid shipping label if needed

    After we receive your items, we coordinate distribution to our partner organizations so your work reaches those who need it most.
