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.

What are you doing the evening of January 22?  You could attend an evening of laughs.  We all could use a few right now.  Here are some reasons that you might want to attend that evening.  

1.  You have sworn off CNN and perhaps all television for the weekend.  

2.  You want to support two really good organizations that are vital in the fight for women's and human rights. 

3.  You haven't driven east of the 405 in several weeks.  

4.  You like to laugh.  

Don’t miss this special event benefitting The Feminist Majority and Human Rights Watch, which is hosted by Bruce Villanch and features Kevin Nealon & laughing-mattersmore!
