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.
At TREE MUSKETEERS kids are boss, but adult volunteers looking to support youth leaders can put their "Back Seat Driving" skills into action by joining the Adult Partner Team! This is also a great opportunity for you to volunteer with your child whether they are a general volunteer or Youth Planting Supervisor. Pick your schedule as you go, but folks who can help at Tree Musketeer's annual tree planting event, Arbor Day Celebration in March, are especially needed.
Register for the orientation through Tree Musketeer's website, email Volunteers@TreeMusketeers.org or call 310-322-0263 for more info.

We love working for (and with!) veterans. We’ll be hosting vets from all over town. Together, we’ll enjoy great games (including our 1st-Ever Trivia Night) and entertainment from our amazing friends, The New Directions Veterans’ Choir, who are back for a return performance! We’ll also be writing letters to military personnel on active duty. Then, of course, everyone’s invited for a big, memorable Big Sunday community dinner. It’s a great way to show the vets how much we care!
We are collecting comic books for our pals at Operation Gratitude to include in their care packages that are sent to service members deployed overseas. We’re also collecting unexpired, non-perishable food for the Downtown VA as part of April’s End of the Month Club.
