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.
Young Storytellers is an arts education nonprofit with programs in public elementary schools all over Los Angeles and a few remote locations across the country. Using the tried and true techniques of mentoring, collaboration, and performance, we provide students with an opportunity to write stories and see them brought to life on stage. Our mission is to inspire young people to discover the power of their own voice. Our Script to Stage program is a nine-week program with volunteers offering one-on-one mentoring for fifth graders where they learn creative self-expression by writing their very own screenplay. At the end of the program, we have working actors come perform the plays live! Each session occurs for one hour once a week at individual school sites typically during their lunch hour. We especially need amazing volunteers like you for the following three schools that start next week:
El Rincon Elementary (11177 Overland Ave Culver City CA 90230)

Dear Neighborhood Leaders and Urban Foresters —
I am happy to share that new street trees are coming to Central Long Beach!
Up to 100 trees will be planted in the neighborhood bounded by:
Willow Street –- North
Hill Street –- South
Atlantic Avenue — East
Long Beach Boulevard -– West
SBCC Thrive LA’s Grupo Mariposas and East Los Angeles Women’s Center — Promontoras Contra la Violencia Domestica and Community Development YMCA of Greater Long Beach Bobby Smith Community Leadership Institute are all committed to help plant, water and care for these trees for their first year. They have chosen the theme “Unite the Neighborhood” and will use this tree planting as an opportunity to bring parents and neighbors together to get to know each other and help make the neighborhood a safer place for everyone.
Come help plant the trees!
