The check-in/registration table is a guest's first impression of the EyeBall and we know the volunteers will assist us to help all run smoothly! Once check-in is done, Microsoft volunteers might transition to another volunteer position such as the live auction- this is always an exciting role! Additional Request: Project Vision Hawaii would like to request for any available computers, devices, payment systems or software to be donated to on behalf of the corporate organization to assist the cashier, registration and check-in table during the event. Corporate personnel will volunteer during event, be in charge of devices, and take devices back to their storage after the event.

Leg Up Farm's Fall Fest is the organization's marquee event for both connecting with the community and raising the funds needed to provide children impacted by special needs with invaluable pediatric therapy services. Held annually in October, between 3,000-5,000 people come to Leg Up Farm for the event. The event consists of: 60 craft vendors, 15 food trucks, kids activities (i.e. pumpkin decorating, trick-or-treat trail, playground access, fish pond access, etc.), tours of the therapy center, and fundraising activities (i.e. silent auction and donation station).In 2018 alone, Leg Up Farm served over 550 individuals and provided more than 14,000 therapy appointments. Unfortunately, the need for Leg Up Farm services does not diminish, as evident from the more than 500 children who are currently on our waiting list.
What continues to set Leg Up Farm apart from other pediatric therapy providers is that it does not limit the number of Medicaid recipients served. Additionally, Leg Up Farm provides scholarships and sliding scale payment arrangements to un- and underinsured families. As such, children who would otherwise have to wait for services, due to limited openings for Medicaid recipients, or who cannot access services at all, due to a lack of financial resources, are able to access dire, life-changing services through Leg Up Farm. While this commitment is invaluable to the children and families served, it limits Leg Up Farm’s ability to retrieve payment for the true cost of services.
Through events such as Fall Fest, necessary resources and awareness are raised to keep Leg Up Farm accessible to every child who may need our services, which include: physical, occupational, speech and aquatic therapy; counseling services; therapeutic horseback riding; nutrition services; and, educational and recreational programming.
