Event overview

Hey Everyone! Come join us at the Othello Park International Festival on Sunday August 11th. We will be running a booth and support the event by occasionally walking through and cleaning up any garbage. The event runs from 12-6 but you can stop in and support the booth/event as your time allows. Here is a description of the event: Celebrating Othello neighborhood’s many cultures and community interests with this year’s theme: We are the World! Gather on the second Sunday of August for a full afternoon of Othello Park’s family fun festival to meet and greet new & old friends to play, learn, dance, create, engage, eat, and shop! Last year’s festival vendors brought a fabulous array of entertainment & engagement: Art, Civic, Community, Dwelling, Education, Environment, Finance, Food, Games, Health, Performances, Shopping, Transportation, and a Petting Zoo.

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.
