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.

WE Day California is coming to the Los Angeles area for the first time on Thursday, April 7, 2016, and they want you to join them as a volunteer!
WE Day brings together world-renowned speakers and performers with tens of thousands of youth to celebrate the power young people have to change the world. Students can’t buy a ticket to WE Day – they earn it through active citizenship by participating in one local and global action.
The success of WE Day is largely dependent on our committed volunteers, who take on a variety of roles in helping our staff execute the events. Volunteers have the opportunity to be a part of the excitement of WE Day, sharing in the passion of inspirational speakers and performers, and interacting with youth, educators and honored guests.
An event of this magnitude requires the support of about 1,000 volunteers. Support young people leading local and global change, see world-renowned speakers and performers, and give back to your community in a fun and meaningful way.
For a full description of the roles available and to register, please visit www.weday.com/volunteer. There are many roles for a wide range of skills and interests, for both youth and adults alike!
If you would like more information, please visit www.weday.com/volunteer or email volunteers@freethechildren.com.
