Celebrating Community: Big Sunday’s 14th Annual MLK Day Clothing Drive

On January 19, 2026, Los Angeles will witness a vibrant gathering as Big Sunday hosts its 14th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day Clothing Drive. The event will take place from 10 AM to 1 PM PT at South Park Elementary School, bringing together a diverse community of over a thousand volunteers who will sort through more than 4,500 pounds of clothing collected for those in need.

At the heart of this event is the collaborative effort of volunteers from all walks of life.
