Houston Platoon

Event overview

Partnering with the Greater East End Management District we are needing volunteers to help with clean up of Terminal Street Linear Park. A few years a go the 5th platoon was able to help with tree planing, built and installed some benches for sitting, and do an overall clean up and hauling of debris. This time we are go to be mulching, pruning, weeding, litter pick-up and we even have a painting project for the kiddos. Registration and breakfast will begin at 7:30 am for an on time start. Lunch, refreshments, and TMC t-shirts will also be provided.

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.
