Remembering 9/11 #UNITEDWESERVE

This year marks the 17th anniversary of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and The Mission Continues is issuing a call to serve and stand UNITED. Mission Continues Service Platoons nationwide are organizing service projects for veterans and local volunteers to come together, make a difference in their community, and remember those who served and sacrificed in the wake of 9/11. Austin 1st Platoon is honoring this day by serving with the Mary Lee Foundation at their campus in South Austin. It's difficult to describe their efforts in any brevity. They serve those with low income, the homeless, the intellectually disabled, those with traumatic brain injuries, and many veterans too. They provide day programs, residence programs, affordable housing and so much more. The Mary Lee Foundation has spent over 50 years doing their best to improve the livelihood and dignity of those in need. We as a platoon are lucky to be able to help. United by the common bond of service, volunteers will tackle projects that will help improve dignity for the residents of this community! Painting is one of the quickest and easiest ways to make smiles, so expect to do plenty of painting. We will also help with upkeep in the garden areas and common spaces. There is plenty to do and there are more events in the works. Join us, this is the beginning of something special.
