🎖️ Veterans Day of Service: Community Project with The Mission Continues – Atlanta 🇺🇸

Join The Mission Continues – Atlanta Platoon as we honor the courage, sacrifice, and continued impact of our nation's veterans through a meaningful day of service and community connection. This Veterans Day, we’re rallying veterans, volunteers, and neighbors to transform a local space and build something lasting together.

📍 This year’s project will take place at Hamilton E. Holmes Elementary School and will include:
🎨 Painting and Beautification — Refreshing shared spaces to foster pride and inspiration
🌿 Finish Building an Outdoor Classroom — Creating a space that promotes experiential learning and connection to nature
🖌️ Designing a Community Mural — A bold, visual tribute to the legacy of service and the strength of our community

Through collective action, we celebrate the spirit of Veterans Day—not only by recognizing service, but by continuing it. This is an opportunity to empower veterans, uplift local families, and invest in the next generation.

👥 Whether you’re a veteran, a resident, or someone passionate about giving back, your participation makes a real difference. Let’s unite, serve with purpose, and honor our veterans through impactful action.

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.
