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.
Dear Neighborhood and Community Leaders —
More new trees are coming to the Hamilton neighborhood in North Long Beach in 2017! I am writing to invite you and your groups to volunteer at this tree planting event!
The Port of Long Beach has provided funding to plant 6,000 trees in Long Beach neighborhoods through 2020! Businesses and community groups are partnering with Housing and Neighborhood Services to provide volunteers at the tree planting events.
Come help build the urban forest in Long Beach with the Hamilton Neighborhood Association!
The trees will be planted in the neighborhood bounded by:
68th Street (North)
Artesia Boulevard (South)
Atlantic Avenue (West)
Gardenia Avenue (East)
