Operation Block Party & Prep

June 20, 2020

10:00 AM - 02:00 PM PDT

Seattle Platoon

Event overview

Operation Block Party Normally we do a small prep event with only a few people to prepare for a larger scale event. However, the Garden is in dire need of a little love and attention. It is going to be a larger scale event just to get the Garden ready for planting the next week. In light of recent events, we will set up hour-long shifts and limited the number of people that will be in the garden at the same time. So when you register please let us know what times work best for you and how many people you will be bringing with you. We will do everything we can to make sure that we social distance and have the proper protective gear for everyone. We will set up primary points of contact for each one of the raised and they will be in charge of setting up the bed and coordinating with those that have raised plants to set up their gardens.

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.
