Baldwin Library Move

February 16, 2019

09:00 AM - 04:00 PM EST

Pittsburgh Platoon

Event overview

The Baldwin Library provides a safe, comfortable, and inviting gathering place that connects the community, including large numbers of immigrant and refugee residents that reside in the Baldwin area. This February, in order to expand their services and be more accessible to the refugee community, they will be moving to a new location adjacent from Leland Park, a largely populated housing complex that is home to a diverse community of refugees. They have asked South Hills Platoon to help them with this important move. We will join with other residents and volunteers to load packed boxes into box trucks and relocate them to the new facility. We will also be raising Old Glory at the new site! Join us in supporting this important resource to the community. This event will be the first official partnership with South Hills Platoon and the Baldwin Library, but we plan on continued, strategic partnership throughout 2019 and beyond; helping to beautify the new library building! The Baldwin Library will be graciously providing coffee and lunch for volunteers!

Who We Are

In 2025, Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) acquired The Mission Continues, bringing two best-in-class organizations together to provide more opportunities for veterans to find community, lead, and serve. Guided by the ethos “If Not Me, Then Who…,” veterans continue their service, build connections, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation. Learn more about TMF at travismanion.org

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.
