Event overview

Philadelphia! Join Us on May 31st for a Day of Service at Center in the Park!

We're returning to Center in the Park, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting older adults, and we need your help keeping its spaces vibrant and welcoming. Together, we'll lay mulch and do some weeding and gardening around the building, ensuring this vital community hub remains beautiful and inviting for all who visit.

Your efforts will make a real difference in the lives of the older adults who rely on Center in the Park for connection and support. Let's unite to give back to those who have given so much to our community. Join us in this meaningful project and help us create a space that reflects the care and respect our elders deserve.

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.
