Event overview

What a fantastic year it has been for the Houston Platoon! As we reflect on the incredible impact we have made together throughout the Houston area, we invite everyone to join us in celebrating our achievements. From community outreach initiatives to collaborative projects that have uplifted local neighborhoods, our collective efforts have truly made a difference. This celebration marks not just the conclusion of an extraordinary year, but also the foundation for even more amazing endeavors ahead. As we close out 2024, it's essential to recognize the hard work and dedication each member has contributed to our mission. The bonds we've formed and the milestones we've reached together serve as a testament to what we can achieve when we stand united for a common purpose. But don't worry; this isn’t the end! We have an exciting lineup of activities and projects planned for the upcoming year that will only strengthen our impact in the Houston community. Let’s come together to honor our accomplishments and gear up for the next chapter in our journey as the Houston Platoon!

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.
