Catie's Closet

Boston Platoon

Event overview

Join The Mission Continues Boston Platoon at Catie's Closet Boston Distribution Center for donation sorting. Catie's Closet provides resources for children who are homeless or living in poverty. Catie’s Closet provides children access to clothing and basic necessities which are important in order to feel valued, build self-esteem, and allows our children to better focus on their education.

The Boston Platoon will sort and prepare clothing and basic necessity donations for distribution into Catie's in-school closets or for the SOS Urgent Response program. This includes separating donations by classification and hanging, folding, or sorting as needed. Volunteers can expect an upbeat team environment. Ability to read garment tags needed.

You are welcome to bring any donations you feel are suitable for Catie's Closet. They look for new or like-new items, school-appropriate clothing, and brands and styles our kids would be excited to wear! Catie’s Closet accepts infant, toddler, youth and adult sizes and also accepts new and full-sized toiletries.

Who We Are

In 2025, Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) acquired The Mission Continues, bringing two best-in-class organizations together to provide more opportunities for veterans to find community, lead, and serve. Guided by the ethos “If Not Me, Then Who…,” veterans continue their service, build connections, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation. Learn more about TMF at travismanion.org

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.
