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.
The Garden School Foundation's workdays are a huge part of the work they do. Once a month, volunteers and community partners come together at their 24th Street school garden (2055 W 24th Street) to have some fun in the sun, enjoy delicious, garden-fresh snacks, and get vital work done that keeps their living classrooms beautiful for the kids they serve. They also have a cooking or gardening workshop during each of their workdays, where volunteers can learn & get inspired about food, from seed to table! Join GSF on Dec. 12! Please contact Shelby Crowell for more info.
Hundreds of girls throughout LA County train in eager anticipation of this day! YOU can join with GOTRLA as an Awesome Volunteer to make everyone feel like the winners that they are. Whether you help greet guests with a smile as they park, jazz up their style with face-painting, hand out water to the runners, or clean up after the race … just imagine the positive impact you will have as you spend your morning rooting for everyone to walk, run or skip their way to the finish line! Join them for a day of joy, health and confidence!
