Event overview

Come join the Oakland 1st and San Francisco 1st Service platoons as we team up with the stewards of the Golden Gate National Park System on Saturday, February 3rd for a fun day of work! We are going to head over to the Lands End Trail by the Nike Missile site to work with the stewards to restore some native plants and habitat while also learning about the area. We can expect to do a short hike into the area and assist with planting for habitat restoration and maintenance. There will also be weed abatement work. The stewards will discuss the local flora and fauna and ecosystem while educating the group about our impact and efforts!

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.
