Fall Social: Changemaker Mixer @ Sid Gold's Request Room in Manhattan!

September 12, 2023

06:00 PM - 08:00 PM EDT

New York City Platoon

Event overview

Tuesday, September 12th, 6pm to 8pm, join The Mission Continues-NYC (TMC NYC), New Politics Leadership Academy (NPLA), and New Leaders Council-NYC (NLC NYC) for their fall Changemakers Mixer! Enjoy drinks, food, and live entertainment while meeting fellow New Yorkers who know that you can't do well unless you also do good!

Have fun meeting emerging leaders from throughout New York... and maybe even team up to sing some karaoke at one of Manhattan's most unique venues!

In addition to the evening's festivities, this is a chance to learn about upcoming fellowship and professional development opportunities, including how to apply to New Politics Leadership Academy's Answering the Call program and New Leaders Council's 2024 Fellowship!

Registration in advance is required. Dress comfortably for an event alongside those who just left the office after the work day. There is no cost to attend and a selection of food and drinks is included, so please simply remember to tip.

Sid Gold's Request Room is located on West 26th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues. It is very close to the 1 train stops at 23rd and 28th Streets, as well as within a short (5 to 10 minute) walk from most other Flatiron/Midtown subway stops.

If you would like to coordinate your group's or organization's participation in or sponsorship of this event, or for any other questions, please reach out to Troy Mack (tmack@missioncontinues.org).

Share good times with great people before this year's 9/11 service project in West Harlem the following weekend, so come out and fellowship in preparation for that Saturday's work. Spread the word and we hope to see you at Sid Gold's Request Room on September 12th!

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.
