Volunteer Slogans FAQ

Which volunteer slogans work best on shirts?

Short ones read best, like Committed to the Cause or Volunteers Are Love in Motion.

Can we add our organization’s logo?

Yes. Many groups put a slogan on the front and the logo on the back.

When should we order our shirts?

Order a few weeks before you need them. That leaves time to approve the design, collect sizes, and have the shirts arrive in time.

Can I get help with the design?

Yes. Start in the Design Lab, and Custom Ink’s Inkers can help with fonts, colors, and placement.
