People with a Truck or Van
VegFest Oahu 2017 needs 3-4 folks with a truck or van to help us move bagged rubbish to our dumpster about 2 blocks away on event day September 2nd. Other volunteers will deliver and load the bags into your vehicle. You’d do a run – with those volunteers – about every 60 minutes. During your 2 hr “on call” shift you’d probably have active rubbish duty for about 30 minutes. You get: a VegFest T-shirt, 2 hr. free King st. parking, and our sincere gratitude. Please let us know that you can help make VegFest Oahu a BEAUTIFUL place to be! Email us: Team@VegFestOahu.com
House of Truth
ARE YOU… Hungry to see changes in the world? Wanting to serve and contribute to the solution? Eager to share the vegan message in a powerfully positive and joyful way? Then this is YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE! We invite you to become a Volunteer Counselor at the VegFest Oahu HOUSE OF TRUTH.
BOOTH DESCRIPTION: The House of Truth at VegFest Oahu will provide a highly effective and informative experience for festival attendees to view the realities of industrialized factory farming. We offer them $1 to watch a 4-minute video called “Farm to Fridge” via laptop/ipads. After watching the video, attendees will be encouraged to talk to House of Truth Counselors to give feedback, ask questions, and receive resources about the benefits of being vegan.
GOAL: Last year the House of Truth had 4 viewing stations on laptops/ipads and was able to educate over 100 people about the horrors of factory farming and the value of going vegan. This year’s goal is to have 9 viewing stations available and educate more than double that number!
VOLUNTEER ROLE: Your role is Greeter/Counselor. You will stand near the entrance to the booth and explain the “Pay per View” opportunity to interested attendees, encourage them to do it, and then set them up at a viewing station with headphones. After the attendee views the video, you will offer to be available to talk with attendees and answer questions and provide resources.
VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS:
1) Be Vegan, with general knowledge of how a plant-based program impacts health, environment, and animal welfare.
2) Commit to one shift at VegFest Oahu on September 2, 2017. Shifts are two hours long, available times are: 12:00pm – 2:00pm, or 2:00pm – 4:00pm, or 4:00pm – 6:00pm.
