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.
Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services is holding the 18th Annual Alive & Running 5k Walk/Run for Suicide Prevention on Sunday, September 25th, and they are currently looking for volunteers and participants.
Alive and Running is a 5K Walk/Run to raise funds and awareness for Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services’ Suicide Prevention Center (SPC). Their SPC was founded in 1958, and provides critical services to people who are contemplating suicide and those affected by the suicide of a loved one.
Proceeds from the event are used to fund vital programming at the Suicide Prevention Center, which has one of the nation’s few 24/7 Spanish/English crisis lines and is one of only three that answers calls for the National Disaster Distress Helpline. The Center trains more than 20,000 people a year, participates in cutting-edge research and runs support groups replicated around the world for people who have thought about, attempted or lost someone to suicide.
Volunteer duties include:
• T-shirt distribution
• Parking lot attendants
• Design “Finish Line” posters
• Water distribution
• Award distribution
• Finish line cheerleaders
• Provide volunteer station relief
• High School Team assistance
• Set-up/Clean-up
Alive and Running will take place near LAX, on 88th Street and La Tijera Boulevard. Volunteers are asked to be at the event from 6:30am to 11am.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Volunteer Coordinator Hillary Peregrina at 310-751-5455 or DevTemp@didihirsch.org.
NOTE: All volunteers welcome; those 14 years old and under must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
