Event overview

“It’s when you’re acting selflessly that you are at your bravest.” ~ Veronica Roth Hey St. Louis! Come out and join us for a fun and lively Saturday morning on the farm at Ujima St. Louis. We will be building a fence, installing a few signs, and performing basic farm and landscape projects with a variety of great music playing in the background to help you whistle while you work. This is a family friendly event and there will be something to do for everyone. Snacks and refreshments will be provided. Expect it to be warm so please dress accordingly. Please contact the St. Louis Platoon Leader, Kenric Lynn, via text at 50-220-6503 if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks for your support in advance! #charliemike!

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.
