Event tabling will run for multiple hours. The volunteer will need to arrive early (typically 30 minutes to an hour) prior to the event beginning. They will be responsible for setting up the table and displays at and around the table. The volunteer will "work" the event talking to people walking by the display and answering questions about organ donation and procurement. The volunteer will have to remain after the event to breakdown and clean up the area around the OurLegacy/Donate Life table. Depending on the length and size of the event the setup, hosting, and breakdown may be divided among multiple volunteers.
Some of these events will be set up by the OurLegacy PR team, while others by the volunteer. Once the volunteer has completed training, they will be allowed to contact organizations to setup speaking arrangements. If the event is large the OurLegacy PR team can support the volunteer by recruiting more volunteers, helping gather more speakers, and/or accompanying the volunteer.
