What Counts as Service?
Little Acorns celebrates helping others beyond your household. Service should benefit your community, neighbors, animals, or the environment — not everyday responsibilities at home.

When in doubt — ask: Did this help someone outside my own household?
Little Acorns is a youth service initiative designed to encourage community involvement. Children may participate independently or with help from a parent/guardian. By participating, families understand that service activities are self-directed and Little Acorns does not supervise individual projects or events. Parents/guardians are responsible for ensuring activities are age-appropriate and safe.
Little Acorns may review submissions and adjust hours if an activity does not meet program guidelines.
