What is the BIG Event?

Texas State's annual BIG Event serves as one of the university's well-recognized traditions. Hosted by the Student Involvement and Engagement, the BIG Event serves as a one-day event for students, staff, and faculty to come together and volunteer their time to engage in various service projects throughout the community at residents’ homes, local schools, parks, churches, and neighborhoods. Since 2003, the BIG Event has become one of the largest service projects on campus and in the state.

3,000 Volunteers

The BIG Event started with approximately 700 volunteers and has grown to accommodate over 3,000 volunteers consisting of students, staff and faculty.

250+ JOBSITES

Over the past 20 years, the BIG Event has grown from serving 50 jobsites to over 200 service sites, many from our amazing San Marcos residents!
