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.
Food on Foot needs volunteers to help serve food to the homeless and poor on Sunday, June 5 in Hollywood at 3pm.
It only takes 90 minutes and the experience is always something you never forget. Those in the food line are extremely appreciative and grateful to the volunteers.
Advance registration is required at http://www.foodonfoot.org/volunteer/.
Imagine LA works with volunteers and vulnerable families to break the cycle of homelessness, poverty, and neglect; and help every member thrive!
Their Family Mentorship Program matches a team of volunteer mentors from committed organizations to work directly with a family for 1-2 years. Imagine LA matches every family member with a one-to-one mentor; plus every family gets a Budget Mentor; and other volunteers help with tutoring, career development, childcare, healthcare, meal-planning and more. Imagine LA works.

Arts Brookfield presents a highly acclaimed public art installation by Australian artist Amanda Parer. The installation, titled Intrude, features seven monumental rabbits constructed of sewn white nylon that have been inflated and internally lit. Two of the seven rabbits were specially commissioned by Arts Brookfield, each scaling over two stories in height.
Rabbits in Parer’s native Australia are an out of control pest first introduced by white settlers in 1777. Their intrusion into the landscape and impact on the country’s endemic species was the initial inspiration for Intrude. Their presence in LA’s urban landscape invites viewers to get up close, cuddle and enjoy while also asking one to consider every species’ larger than life impact on their surroundings.
The seven rabbits of Intrude will be spread across several Brookfield properties on Bunker Hill and at the FIGat7th retail center in downtown Los Angeles from June 5 – June 11.
