The Big Event

The Big Event is a one-day service project that provides the students of Texas A&M an opportunity to say "thank you" to the local community and residents for all their loyal support. The Big Event originated at Texas A&M in 1982, and has since become the largest, single-day, student run, service project in the nation. From its humble beginnings of six people cleaning a local cemetery, The Big Event has expanded to include over 1,200 jobs and 12,500 students.
