The event also offered free haircuts and hair styling to the attendees. The volunteers first helped to set up many stands and carry supplies. They brought over boxes of produce, backpacks, and tables. They were also in charge of the pizza and ice cream stands, where they helped to serve the food. Some volunteers helped to organize and run other stands where they handed out supplies. They helped to oversee the bean-bag toss stand.This event was organized by the Teen Nation Talk Show and their host, Saniya Symone, who personally attended and helped out at the event.
