We are hosting a resource table at Business + Bazaar, a vendor fair in Ionia, Michigan.
This is an indoor, resource table opportunity organized by Dani Reisbig. You will be handing out giveaway items and answering questions about organ and tissue donation. You're encouraged to speak about your personal experience with donation to the extent that you feel comfortable.
You'll have a staff member present with you during your entire shift. We will also have an FAQ sheet available for your review. You won't be asked to lift or carry heavy items or to assist with setup or tear down.
We don't have all of the details about the event logistics yet, including the preferred door to enter and where vendors should park. If you sign up, Dani will send a follow-up email with additional information when it's made available by the organizers.
WINTER WEATHER
This winter has already proven that it shouldn't be underestimated. Please do not travel if you feel unsafe. In the case of cancellation, Dani will send an email as soon as possible. Please check your email before traveling to the event or contact Dani directly if you're unsure (especially if you're traveling far.)
DRESS CODE
Please wear your volunteer shirt and name tag.
ACCESSIBILITY
The space is wheelchair accessible. There will be handicap parking available. You will have a chair, and you are welcome to sit the entire time if needed. You will not be asked to lift or carry heavy items. This is an indoor, vendor event so it may be loud. You should expect large crowds.
FOOD & BEVERAGES
There are many restaurants and grocery stores close to the venue. There may be food vendors at the event. We aren't sure about restrictions to bring food and drink into the venue.
