Event overview

Volunteer Opportunity at Strength of Love 2 Farm - West Baltimore In Honor of Lt. Collins Join us for our annual day of service at Strength of Love 2 Farm, a community farm located in the heart of West Baltimore. This event is held in honor of Lt. Collins, recognizing his commitment to service and the community. Strength of Love 2 Farm provides fresh produce to residents in a food desert, where access to healthy food is limited. Volunteers will assist with hoop house maintenance, building picnic tables, fence construction, and general cleanup around the farm. Your contributions will help the farm increase its capacity to grow nutritious produce, enhance the space for community use, and preserve this vital resource for the local area. By participating, you'll be supporting both the farm’s mission of fostering food security and sustainable agriculture and honoring Lt. Collins' legacy of service.

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.
