Event overview

Join us to support The 6th Branch Baltimore for their 8th Annual community service event in East Baltimore honoring the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Hosted by the New Broadway East Community Association. We will be meeting in the parking lot of Southern Baptist Church(2105 E Lafayette Ave, Baltimore, MD 21213) and then after a short program we will begin work on several projects throughout the Broadway East Community. Parking is street parking around the meeting area. Projects include several light demolition, overgrowth removal, and large scale trash clean-up projects on multiple sites in the Broadway East community. Also, it is January so please dress in layers and be prepared for the cold. As usual, if you want to attend, you'll need to register at: https://missioncontinues.org/service-platoon/baltimore-2nd-platoon 6th Branch also requires volunteers to fill out a sign up form. You can find it at: https://the6thbranch.z2systems.com/np/clients/the6thbranch/eventRegistration.jsp?event=4160 We did support 6th Branch last year with more than 400 other volunteers and it was amazing. We'll be doing lots of good work. Can wait to see you there. Christophe.

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.
