Join Food Forward’s Produce Pop Up
"Food Forward and the Social Justice Learning Institute volunteers will work side-by-side to sort, clean, and assemble overflowing bags of produce. More than 10,000 pounds of apples, bell peppers, tomatoes, mangoes, plums, peaches are distributed, benefitting hundreds of individuals, families, and students in the Inglewood community. This whole process is done in the same day, in just a few hours."
Harvest Fresh Food with Food Forward
Volunteers will be collecting the beautiful fresh fruit that would otherwise go to waste, and donating 100% to local hunger-relief agencies. Join the Volunteer Harvest Team to help pick as much fruit as possible from trees, and pack it into boxes to be donated. Volunteers should be comfortable picking and carrying boxes of fruit, but don't need to worry about bringing equipment or transporting the fruit. This opportunity is open to volunteers 5 years old and older, though children under 16 years old must be accompanied by an adult.

At Big Sunday, we love bringing people together. To kick off the summer, we’ve decided to start an annual tradition – Big Sunday’s 1stAnnual Bowling Bash! We’re inviting lots of people of all ages, from all walks of life, for 2 hours of bowling, pizza, and fun. Guests will include friends of all different ages and various challenges. Many don’t get to go bowling often, if ever. (Although we hear one senior bowling has a way of getting lots of strikes!) We need other folks to come bowl with them, hang out with them, and show them a good time. All ages welcome. Groups (up to 5 people) welcome, too! Sign up below to join us at Corbin Bowl in Tarzana on June 19th from 11am – 1pm. We’ll see you there! BTW: Would you or your group be interested in being a sponsor of this event? (Sponsorships are $2500 & $1000, and $500 and allow us to keep all our programs free!) Contact david@bigsunday.org.
