Welcome to The Big Event, UL Lafayette's largest day of service! This is our way of giving students, faculty, staff, and alumni a way to say 'thank you' to the Lafayette community. Through a variety of service projects, students gain a sense of citizenship and social responsibility, all while promoting a Ragin' Cajun spirit.
This year we are celebrating the 12th annual Big Event on March 29, 2025! This day would not be possible without the help of 2024-2025 The Big Event Executive Board. This team of student leaders has worked together for nearly 10 months planning this year’s event. Thank you for your dedication to The Big Event and for laying a strong groundwork for this year's event. We would also like to acknowledge our advisors for this year’s event: Kayleigh Murphy, Morgan Scott, Michelle Gomez, Leticia Andrus, Andre David, and Elle Clements. Thank you for your guidance and support! Finally, we would like to thank the rest of our campus partners: Dr. Beth Giroir, Dean Yarbrough and the Office of Community Service, Dr. Gretchen Vanicor, Jonathan Brown, Blair Begnaud, and the Office of Sustainability. The collaboration across our campus is what makes The Big Event so special. One Big Thanks to our team!
