Event overview

SA 2nd Platoon, USAA has a special opporunity for 12 of our veterans. We've been invited to join USAA top exec team with United Way to build a Born Learning Trail. Born Learning Trail is an initiative by United Way to provide young children with an opportunity to get active, have fun and boost language and literacy skills. Born Learning Trails include 10 interactive signs with activities for adults to engage in with young children to turn an outdoor trip into a fun learning experience. We will be working alongside USAA execs and digging, cement pouring, etc. and painting to build the first Born Learning Trail at MLK Park. Afterwards, we will have a special tour, talk and lunch at the Eastside Boys & Girls next door! Spots limited so PLATOON MEMBERS ONLY!

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.
