D/C Support for Loiederman Middle School Resilience Hub

08:30 AM - 01:00 PM EST

Baltimore Platoon

Event overview

We’re extending beyond Veterans Day and dedicating the entire month of November to honor the sacrifices our veterans have made with their time in service. Please join us this November to give back to the local communities that have welcomed our veteran's home.

The National Capital Region is heavily invested in creating a Network of Resiliency Hubs. The hub at Loiederman Middle School is slated to be one of the largest in the region, and we have been asked to assist as they build out their garden area. We will focus on building garden beds for this project and will need all hands on deck to complete this massive garden bed project.

This year, the work continues, and our veterans are choosing to report for duty in our communities. The mission is clear, and we hope you will join us for Veterans In Service this November!

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.
