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.
Learn what you need to know to be a manager! Put your ideas into action, learn how to plan, organize, and lead projects and events. This formal volunteer opportunity is open to all area youth in 5th – 12th grades.

Catch the rain when it hits with a free rain barrel from West Basin Municipal Water District (West Basin)! California has been in a statewide drought for five years, and likely a sixth. In response, West Basin is increasing public conservation and education by hosting no-cost rain barrel distribution events throughout the South Bay this fall season to qualified residents in the West Basin service area.
RSVP by visiting www.sbesc.com to participate on Tuesday, December 20 at The Forum in Inglewood. See you there!

On April 15th, join Heal the Bay and the Boys & Girls Club to design something amazing in celebration of Earth Month.
Teams will compete to create the most creative sand structure fitting the ocean theme. You are masters of design, but do you have what it takes to work on the sandy shores with curious onlookers standing by?
Over 1000 volunteers will be working to clean the beach while you are designing your creation, and all will assemble at noon to see the finished products. Prizes and merriment to follow!
This year, teams will also have the opportunity to host a few youth members looking to get out of their neighborhoods and onto the sand with you. They can learn about new career paths and the science behind design work.
Sign up your team today!
For more information or to purchase tickets over the phone, please email Danie Eley at deley@healthebay.org.
