Miami Platoon

Event overview

The Mission Continues is partnering with Goldman Sachs., who are hosting a Feed the Funnel Party with The Pack Shack, a national hunger relief organization, at the Goldman Sachs office in Downtown Miami on Thursday, December 7th to pack nutritious meals for families impacted by Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. These meals will be transported to Puerto Rico by the Convoy of Hope, a nonprofit organization that facilitates the delivery of food and emergency supplies to communities in need around the world. On average, one person will pack 200-250 meals per hour, so a team of 50 people could easily pack 20,000 meals in under two hours! Our goal is to pack a total of 50,000 meals with the help of our colleagues, friends, and family. There are two shifts available for volunteers: SHIFT 1: 2pm – 4pm SHIFT 2: 4pm – 6pm Parking and lunch will be provided for free. Feel free to bring your families to support this incredible event for our brothers and sisters in Puerto Rico!

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.
