Honor Veterans Day with Service: Beautify the Girl Scouts' Outdoor Space in Killeen!

This Veterans Day, join the Killeen Platoon to honor the men and women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. We'll beautify their outdoor recreational space in partnership with the Girl Scouts of Central Texas. In this area, young leaders can learn, grow, and thrive.

We need your help to make this space shine! Our mission will include repairing the privacy fence, building new picnic tables, refurbishing a gazebo, and assisting the Girl Scout troops in constructing a fire pit.

How You Can Participate:
No experience is needed—bring your energy and enthusiasm! All tools and materials will be provided.

Please register online to be part of this meaningful day of service and celebration. Let's honor Veterans Day by making a difference in our community and supporting the next generation of leaders!

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.
