New York City Platoon

Event overview

In honor of Martin Luther King Jr Day, members of The Mission Continues New York Service platoons are deploying once again to Mosaic Preparatory Academy in East Harlem to build a positive learning environment for all their scholars. It will be a jam-packed day of fun so make sure you bring anyone who wants to be a part of the fun too. We will be repainting many of the classrooms at the school that have become worn out along with some stencil murals. We will also be destroying and removing a lot of old desks and junk from the school. See you then!

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.
