New York City Platoon

Event overview

On April 14th, The Mission Continues Brooklyn Platoon is deploying once again to Brownsville to help reduce the amount of crime and to help communities build a stronger more connected community. For this service event, in honor of Women's History Month, women-veterans from across New York City will be stepping up to lead the refurbishment of the playground's track and other tasks at Carter G Woodson Playground. We hope everyone in Brownsville gets to witness the strength and leadership of women living in NYC and the power of what can happen when women step up to lead in their community. If you're interested in taking a leadership role for this project, please contact the Platoon Leader, Wesley Huang, at whuang@missioncontinues.org.

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.
