“Day at the Ranch is unique in the way it brings the entire entertainment community together—from crew to creatives, families to colleagues—for a day of genuine connection and purpose. It’s a fun, relaxed outdoor celebration and fundraiser that directly supports industry workers who need help right now.

We rely on PopUp WiFi for all of our connectivity needs throughout Day at the Ranch. Our fundraising platform—including guest check-in, raffle sales, and auction transactions—operates entirely online, so a reliable connection is essential. Guests also use the WiFi to participate in our mobile bidding auction from their phones. Because all of our fundraising takes place digitally, PopUp WiFi is a critical part of making the event run smoothly. If the internet hadn’t worked, we wouldn’t have been able to fundraise or use any of our online systems. Our check-in, raffle and auction sales, mobile bidding, and payment processing all rely on a stable connection. Without reliable internet, the event simply couldn’t function the way it needs to in order to support our fundraising goals.

Guests enjoy a great lunch buffet, an auction and raffle, tons of fun outdoor activities, and so much more! Day at the Ranch celebrates the spirit of our entertainment community while raising vital support for MPTF programs and services.

Motion Picture Television Fund & International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employee’s Day at the Ranch is a community fundraiser that brings together members of the entertainment industry and their families to celebrate unity within our entertainment family. All funds raised help workers facing life’s challenges right now and enable MPTF to continue assisting industry members in times of need.”
