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.

Help Big Sunday send kids back to school in style as we sort, count and pack all kinds of requested items for kids at a bunch of different low-income schools in Los Angeles and Long Beach during our 7th Annual Back-to-School Drive & Community Dinner. The sorting will be followed by a delicious and fun community dinner. We need donors and volunteers. For more info, please contact on items we are collecting or to RSVP, please click HERE.
This summer, join Big Sunday for our summer Community Clean-ups as we take to the streets of Los Angeles to improve the overall look of several neighborhoods. Roll up your sleeves and lend a helping hand in blight/trash removal throughout local communities (all materials are provided)!

Join us for Big Sunday’s 3rd Annual Books n’ Brunch fall book collection. By special request, we’re collecting all kinds of new and gently used books for all kinds of grateful nonprofits. Help us sort and box the books, then stick around as we all enjoy a delicious and friendly brunch! For more info or to sign up to help, please click HERE.
In our opinion, Big Sunday’s harbor cruises are awesome. We host underserved, deserving folks on a special cruise through San Pedro Harbor and often many of our guests have never been on a boat before! We’d love volunteers to join us as hosts with an easy assignment — be friendly, hand out donuts, enjoy one another and enjoy the ride. This excursion is part of Big Sunday’s “We’re All in the Same Boat” project in which everyone is encouraged to meet at least one new person. Each cruise leaves at 10 am and returns at 12 pm and all cruises are always free. For more info or to sign up, contact beenish@bigsunday.org.
Join us for our 7th Annual Spooky Sunday as we host a number of local nonprofits and their families for our Annual Halloween Bash!
This is one of our most fun events of the year and you do not want to miss it! The festivities will include a costume givea
way, a portrait studio, our very scary haunted house, trunk-or-treating, tons of arts & crafts, way too much candy and lots more. (Don’t forget to wear your costume!)
For more info or to sign up today, please click HERE.
Each year we collect and pack big bags full of Thanksgiving dinner for thousands of people, including veterans, homeless families, women in domestic violence shelters, group homes, low-income families, at-risk children, food pantries, schools and more. This year will be even bigger! We need volunteers to donate food and pack up all the Thanksgiving goodies. To RSVP, please click HERE. 
Brighten up the holidays for our vets! Join us as we decorate three enormous buildings at the VA in Westwood. This is a wonderful annual tradition and the kick-off for nearly 20 different Big Sunday holiday decorating events. All ages welcome. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. Groups are also welcome. Contact beenish@bigsunday.org to volunteer or for the full decorating schedule and address details. This is just the first of more than a dozen holiday decorating events!
