Event overview

On behalf of Richardson Dwellings Resident Council they would like to extend an invitation to participate in our Annual"Clay Day" community event. Our theme this year is "Unity in the Community". On July 20, 2019 from 12pm-5pm we will have vendors, performers, food, moon bounces and many table giveaways. Clothing, housewares and children's books will also be distributed. In order for all of this to go smoothly, we need about 10-15 additional volunteers to assist with the moon bounces and tables of items. Churches and residents will have vending stands also for this event. City Gate and Richardson Dwellings Resident Council really enjoyed working Mission Continues with the previous project on previous projects. They are hopeful you will be able to assist us for this community event in July 2019

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.
