Portland Platoon

Event overview

Join the Portland 1st Platoon on Veterans Day for a day of celebration, libation and information with our Brothers and Sisters over at Post #134. The American Legion has a long-standing history on the Northeast side of Portland dating back to World War II, and TMC is honored to have been invited to attend the day's events. About Post #134 Welcome to Post 134 in the heart of the Alberta Arts District in NE Portland, Oregon. We are more than just an American Legion post. We are a place for veterans to come and find purpose, support, and camaraderie. We work with our neighbors to help those in need. At any given day, you can see combat veterans, artists, writers, members of the LGTBQ community, dragon boat paddlers, or even the Oregon Symphony. We are eclectic and wouldn’t have it any other way. Look for many more events with Post #134, as the Portland 1st Platoon looks to host monthly information sessions, as well as join in on several programs at the Post.

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.
