Big Sunday Weekend!
What a weekend!
Yesterday, we spent the day with one our newest partners, Big Sunday—the largest volunteer day-of-service in America. This incredible organization mobilized more than 50,000 people of all ages and all backgrounds who worked together at more than 500 different nonprofit sites in more than 100 different towns and cities across Southern California. All this past weekend. Wow!
How did we help? We sent out 7 Community Listeners—Merlin, Amy, Beth, Sally, Sarah, JB, and Owen—out to more than a dozen project sites in the Los Angeles metro area to capture the day on video. We got to meet some great people (including one of the creators of the TV show, “Friends,” Marta Kauffman) and see everyone coming together to serve their community.
Plus, we got a chance to listen to the hopes of Big Sunday volunteers and learn even more about communities across Los Angeles. You’ll get a chance to see those videos next week.
Check out some of our favorite moments from this weekend, and visit the Big Sunday YouTube Channel to see even more!
