Event overview

We invite you to dress up for the occasion and get ready to learn LGBTQ+ fun facts from around the world. You’ll delve deeper into the conversation around the military, world culture, pride history, and ethics in being a member of a community. Bre Bregaudit is an Army veteran and an alum of the Fellowship Program, Service Leadership Corps, and Mass Deployment. Bre has said that “being a part of The Missions Continues has helped me find open-minded veterans where I do not feel like I have to hide who I am, and most importantly, where I feel safe.” Jennifer Dane is a veteran of the United States Air Force who served as an intelligence analyst focusing on geopolitical, terrorism and threat vulnerability issues. Jennifer currently serves as the Interim Executive Director of the Modern Military Association of America - the nation’s largest non-profit organization working to advance fairness and equality for the LGBTQ military and veteran community.

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.
