How to Create an Optimistic Origami

Step 1
Register as an official volunteer with Self-Lovin' Hearts using the Google Form from the volunteer page of our website. Be sure to wait for an email confirming your registration! For further inquiries, please email selflovinhearts@gmail.com.

Step 2
Please read our origami guidelines and sample messages as it will assist you in writing your origami message!
If you have an SLH chapter at a middle/high school near you: please submit your letters to the chapter leader; chapter leaders will send out origamis to students on campus or the local community and will compile everyone's emails for us to provide service hours.
​
If you are participating virtually: please submit your origami for approval to selflovinhearts@gmail.com and we will email you a certificate with your service hours after you have chosen to either:
​
a) Showcase your origamis on the public gallery
OR
b) Send a picture of you sending your origamis to a local community/organization (libraries, schools, etc.)
