Seattle Platoon

Event overview

On this year's commemoration of 9/11, we call on veterans to REPORT FOR DUTY at the Danny Woo Community Garden joining Seattle 2nd Service Platoon with an important operation: 1. Rebuilding a lookout area - that poses an incredible safety hazard for gardeners 2. Rebuilding a wooden handrail in the garden in partnership with Eagle Scouts Troop 254. Along with Scout Troop 254, we are going to need lots of great hands-on-deck (no pun intended) to make a powerful statement and impact for this community.

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.
