Volunteer With Washington, DC Platoon

The Washington, DC Platoon is dedicated to increasing resilience and supporting organizations around the National Capitol Region. The DC platoon was formed in 2013 and has had a consistent presence in the region since. Our primary focus is assisting our local schools and park beautification, but we also support organizations that focus on addressing homelessness, food insecurity, and community building. Our partners include Fort Dupont Community Gardens, Fields 4 Valor, Hustlaz2Harvestors, My Seniors Keeper Foundation, Ward 8 Woods, Anacostia River Keepers, the University of the District of Columbia, and the Anacostia High School feeder system. Projects have included school beautification, garden and farm clean-ups and growing season preparation, bookbag giveaways, and community fair logistics.
