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.
Come and join over 1,000 community residents and local service providers in sharing information and resources to the community. This group is currently seeking health and workforce development organizations/entities to provide services in South Los Angeles. All are welcome to attend; booth space is limited. Please contact organization as soon as possible to gather additional information and to sign up. They are also looking for K-12 books to give away to the community. All resources will be accepted.

See history before your eyes — and under your feet!
Long Beach Heritage will help launch For the Record on November 18, 2019! This interactive timeline takes history to the streets, telling overlooked stories of the heritage that surrounds us.
Volunteers will install the timeline this weekend, and Councilman Rex Richardson will officially kick it off on Monday. All events meet at Jordan High School (main entrance gate), 6500 Atlantic Ave, Long Beach, CA 90805. Pre-registration is not required and there is no fee to participate.
Installation
Sat., Nov. 16, 3pm
Volunteers welcome!
Kickoff Event
w/ Councilman Rex Richardson
Mon., Nov. 18, 4pm
Guided Tour
Sat., Dec. 7, 10am
For the Record is a placemaking project created in partnership with lead organization We Are The Next and other community leaders to help broaden the story told about North Long Beach by highlighting lesser known events and people who have shaped the city and neighborhood. A series of decals along Atlantic Avenue, between the Michelle Obama Library and Jordan High School, will reach as far back as 1784 to tell the history through an interactive timeline.
By engaging with the North Long Beach community in the places and spaces they frequent every day, For the Record seeks to empower local residents with knowledge of the history that surrounds them. Every weekday, hundreds of local teens walk this path. They will be exposed to the history of their city and discover the place they call home. Though the area has not traditionally participated in mainstream types of historic recognition, such as designating buildings as historic landmarks, this project looks to instill preservation values within the community through a fresh approach.
You can visit For the Record’s digital home at lbtimeline.com to learn more. Contact preservation@lbheritage.org or (562) 493-7019 for more information or https://www.lbheritage.org/tours-events/for-the-record/
