September 11 Remembrance Day of Service

September 09, 2017

09:00 AM - 01:00 PM EDT

Baltimore Platoon

Event overview

Please join us as we remember the horrific events of September 11, 2001. In honor of those that perished, were injured and of those who served selflessly that day and beyond we will enjoy a day of work and fun. We're looking for all hands on deck for this one as we partner with CK Commercial (a local general contracting company) for some exciting projects at Roots & Branches School. Many hands make light work (and more magic!) as we plan to paint a mural on the library wall, give the cafeteria a face lift, install classroom flags, re-purpose some underutilized spaces, and re-mulch the school playground! There will be projects and opportunities for the whole family, so we're encouraging volunteers to bring the kids, grab a friend or coworker, and get ready to make a BIG difference for a very special neighborhood school!

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.
