Big Sunday happily welcomes you to Our Really Big Community Calendar.
We try to include all kinds of volunteering and helping opportunities for all kinds of interests, talents, passions, and ages! As you’ll see, these include volunteering opportunities (one-time and long-term) as well as the chance to support a nonprofit by attending fundraising events. Plus, of course, we include all of Big Sunday’s homegrown events, too! Whoever you are, and whatever you do, there is someone out there who could use your help.
If you have questions about our calendar, or would like to add a listing, please contact calendar@bigsunday.org or submit your event/opportunity via the button below.
The 19th annual Bruin Run Walk will be held Sunday, April 29, 2018! Join us for a terrific morning as friends from UCLA and our community run with a purpose in support of the Chase Child Life program. Teams in recognition of some of our fiercest fighters at UCLA Mattel Children's Hospital come together with staff, students, and community partners on a 5K journey around the beautiful UCLA campus. You can participate by sponsoring a child, registering for the race, or creating a team with friends and family. This 5K event boasts fun, games, crafts, and cheer for everyone involved.
Our walk/5k/10k race is raising awareness and needed funds for the children who will be treated at the new state of the art facility, Shriners for Children Medical Center that recently opened in September 2017 in Pasadena California. This location replaced our old Los Angeles location. The care and treatment they provide is life changing.
The race is Sunday, April 29, 2018 at Woodley Park in Van Nuys, CA. We are hoping to have 1000+ participants this year.
Some of our current supporters and sponsors are Smart & Final, Teamsters Hollywood Local 399, Fire in Motion, Nesquik, Take2 Services, IBEW Local 40, Barragan’s Mexican Restaurant, Nestle/Arrowhead, Nats, Hamburg, Karic Edwards & Martin LLP , Executive Outhouses, Elite Studio Rentals, RX Bars, Noosa Yoghurt, Total Woman and The Agent Harry Kapukchyan to name a few.
You can join the 350,000 Shriner families worldwide that support this new medical center and the world-renowned 22-location health care system located in the United States, Canada & Mexico.
