Mass Deployment - Veterans wanted
ORGANIZATION: The Mission Continues
Please visit the new page to apply.
If you want to spend an intensive week volunteering alongside civic-minded veterans from across the country, pushing your limits and enriching communities, then Mass Deployment is the mission for you! Join us as we unite and empower veterans to make a positive difference in a community in need through their leadership, skills and determination. Mass Deployment is a unique opportunity for veterans to experience individual growth and connection with fellow volunteers, while being of service to others.
For our third annual Mass Deployment (Operation Watts Is Worth It), we will select 80 veterans from across the country to help lead this mission. Throughout this week of high-octane volunteerism, veteran leaders such as yourself will give their all as they take on tough community challenges in the Watts area. It’s not for the faint of heart - but the experience you will share and the impact you will make is invaluable.
Flights, food and lodging will be provided to those selected.

Mission Statement
The Mission Continues empowers veterans who are adjusting to life at home to find purpose through community impact.
Description
We deploy veterans on new missions in their communities, so that their actions will inspire future generations to serve. Since our founding, we have always been a nonprofit, non-partisan organization dedicated to bringing together veterans and innovative community organizations to create transformational change for communities in need all across the country.
Our operations in cities nationwide deploy veteran volunteers alongside non-profit partners and community leaders to solve some of the most challenging issues facing our communities: improving community education resources, eliminating food deserts, mentoring at-risk youth and more.
Through this unique model, veterans build new skills and networks that help them successfully reintegrate to life after the military while making long-term, sustainable transformations in communities and inspiring future generations to serve.
