Veterans Day

Event overview

A month ago, a vehicle lost control and came crashing into the Boys and girls Club building. Nobody was hurt; however, the accident had an impact on how the day-to-day operations flowed within the club. As one of our community partners we want to make sure that the Boys and Girls club have the support they need in order to resume normal operations. On this Veterans Day, we will build some shelves and cubbies, stain chairs, install plies glass, organize spaces, clear rooms out and inventory supplies. Please come out and support our local club and let's make sure they have the community support they need in order to create the impact they have been creating for decades.

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.
