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.
You have done so much, but we hope you might consider doing even more by joining us for our annual Builder’s Ball on Thursday, September 28th, at the Beverly Hilton. It’s going to be another amazing night of food, fun, and fellowship. We will be honoring boxing great Sugar Ray Leonard and hockey great Luc Robitaille of the LA Kings. Grammy nominated and platinum-selling R&B group, En Vogue, will also close out the evening with a wonderful musical performance!

Ticket and table information are attached. You can also visit www.habitatla.org/support-us/donate/los-angeles-builders-ball/. All proceeds will go to support Habitat LA’s Building a Greater Los Angeles campaign to help serve 1,000 more families. The need for affordable housing across Los Angeles is greater than ever and what we do by coming together as Angelinos to raise awareness and support on the 28th will have such an impact for years and generations to come.
Join us for National Public Lands Day at White Point Nature Preserve! You will help care for the White Point Native Plant Demonstration Garden by planting native shrubs, removing invasive weeds, watering native plants, grooming trails and more! Your efforts will help restore this habitat for wildlife as well as create a beautiful place for the community to enjoy!
White Point is located at 1600 W. Paseo del Mar in San Pedro. Enter the free parking lot from the Western Blvd as it turns into Paseo del Mar. We are located at the end of the road on the left-hand side.
We will be working outdoors, so please wear closed-toed shoes, sun protection and be sure to bring drinking water. Event locations may be moved or cancelled in the event of rain. Thank you for volunteering!
Join Big Sunday for a huge community cleanup in West LA! We will be joining forces with the West LA Community Coalition to help beautify the West LA Civic Center, Library and surrounding areas. Volunteers are needed to help with picking up trash, landscaping, tree trimming, cleaning tree beds, removing graffiti and more.

Since 1992, Rebuilding Together Long Beach (RTLB) has developed partnerships within the community to rebuild owner-occupied homes and non-profit facilities for low-income residents, particularly the elderly or those with disabilities, so they may live independently with dignity, in warmth and safety, all at no cost to the recipient(s).
The impact has been incredible, with over $5.8 million in community revitalization services completed (including market value of volunteer work, actual costs and in kind donations values).
Please join us on Saturday, September 30th from 4PM-6PM to celebrate 25 years of rebuilding a healthier Long Beach. Light refreshments will be provided as we share memories and honor the outstanding service of our volunteers. The attire is casual.
