Thanks for your interest! This holiday season we have over 800 (!!!) (and counting!) different opportunities for you to help someone else.
This year has been challenging, especially in Los Angeles. So, as we come to the end of 2025, we’re especially happy to provide this year’s list, with so many ways to help: volunteering, giving or some combination thereof. There are projects for all kinds of interests and all kinds of passions, for all kinds of people (of all ages), all over town. Some listings are specifically holiday-related, while others – equally important – are more general, yet needed just as badly. The list is primarily ordered by date. For those looking for more flexible options, ongoing opportunities (available from November 1st through January 1st) are listed towards the end. And by the way, we’ll be updating this list weekly through December, so keep checking back!).
This year, more than ever: Whoever you are, whatever you do, there is somebody who could use your help.
Please note that we do not sponsor most of the holiday projects on this list. Rather, we put them out to the Big Sunday community and hope someone sees it who wants to help. And every year, it’s incredible how many people do! Then again, this list gets forwarded, posted, copied, printed, and tweeted all over the place. Feel free to pass it along, too.
If you’ve taken on or completed one of these projects, please email alondra@bigsunday.org and let us know – that way, we can thank you and direct other people to projects that still need their help!
And if you enjoy helping at the holidays, please remember that Big Sunday has all kinds of great ways to give back throughout the year. We’d love your help. Feel free to check us out at www.bigsunday.org or contact info@bigsunday.org to see how you can get involved.
Please respect any safety protocols of our nonprofit partners. Also, please note that participation confirms you hold Big Sunday and our nonprofit partners harmless to any claims stemming from this activity. (When applicable, you will be asked to sign a waiver). Thanks for understanding.
Have fun! Thanks so much again for your kind help, and have a wonderful holiday season!
