Seattle Platoon

Event overview

The Seattle 1st Platoon is back in action on April 29th, 2017, as they return to the Ethiopian Community of Seattle in Rainier Beach. This time, as a participant in the premier neighborhood event of the year on the Southside of Seattle - Bridge to Beach 2017. The Platoon will be painting a sport court for the kids, cleaning out an unused portion of the grounds, a little jackhammer work and prepping the playground for future operations. This one is going to be great....after months of rain, and inside work, the platoon is moving outside...hopefully taking advantage of a nice Seattle day. There will all kinds of events that day, as entire neighborhoods are mobilized. We hope to see you there.

Who We Are

The Mission Continues is a national non-profit that empowers veterans to continue serving in our nation’s under-resourced communities, giving veterans the opportunity to keep serving even after the uniform comes off, right here at home. Our programs deploy veterans and volunteers to work alongside nonprofit partners and community leaders to improve educational resources, tackle food insecurity, foster neighborhood identity, and more.  

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.

What is a Service Platoon? 

Service Platoons are your opportunity to engage and connect with veterans and community members while generating community impact in a real and tangible way. Led by veteran volunteer platoon leaders, each platoon works with dedicated community partners and volunteers to provide the manpower and support that they need to help them do their work more effectively. 

We currently have service platoons in more than 40+ cities across the country that are having events at least once a month. Everyone is invited to serve, regardless of veteran status: a service platoon is for you if you have a passion for service.
