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.

Join us Wednesday, Oct 9th for our monthly BHCA meeting featuring Long Beach author Claudine Burnett.
Died In Long Beach
Just in time for Halloween, Claudine Burnett will present “Died In Long Beach”, a fascinating history that unveils surprising historic facts about the deaths of our city founders, politicians, accident victims and Civil War veterans along with stories of the people who cared for the dead and dying.
Are any of our cemeteries haunted?
Were there actually “cemetery wars” at the turn of the century?”
Claudine Burnett is officially listed as one of the top 10 authors from Long Beach and enjoys a rich following through her numerous books and articles. She will answer these questions and more for this fun and interesting Halloween themed presentation.
Wednesday night also marks the start of the BHCA clothing drive, collecting used children’s coats and used clothing for children and adults on behalf of The Children's Clinic Family Health Center at Roosevelt Elementary School and the Mama J Jackets Clothing Drive. Clothing and jackets can be dropped off at this meeting.
We meet at the Belmont Heights United Methodist Church, 317 Termino Ave, Long Beach, CA 90814. Enter at the back parking lot and look for our banner at the stairwell. This is a public event and everyone is welcome.
6:30 pm mixer/refreshments. General meeting 7:00 p.m.
