Clothing Closet Clean Up

April 08, 2017

10:00 AM - 12:00 PM EDT

Newark Platoon

Event overview

In Newark, Catholic Charities hosts a number of services for keeping veterans off the street and keeping them well dressed in otherwise dire situations. The Catholic Charities in Paterson has run into an obstacle where they need all boots on ground to help reorganize their closet so that they may service veterans with clothes for job interviews, loved ones, and to generally stay warm. Let us meet this challenge as an opportunity and make The Mission Continue by fighting poverty in our backyard!

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.
