Join Washington D.C. 3rd Platoon for a day of service at Mt. Vernon High School with our lead sponsor, BAE Systems!
Over the past 4 years, Mt. Vernon High School, and their joint efforts with A Place To Stand Org, has donated over 100,000 lbs of food locally. On May 4th, we'll be supporting this ongoing effort with a project in the onsite community garden.
In coordination with the School Garden Club, 3rd Platoon will clear brush, add soil, plant and fence a herb garden, build and paint four benches, build and paint one planter box bench, paint an existing planter box bench, paint several tables, build a compost bin to further the STEM learning development and remove debris from the existing garden area.
Snacks and plenty of cold water will be available for all volunteers who join us.
To help us keep an accurate count for food and water, PLEASE register for yourself and any other volunteers you plan to bring.
Come with a smile and ready to work.

Mission Statement
We are on a mission to connect veterans with under-resourced communities: empowering veterans to continue their service, while empowering communities with the talent, skills and preparedness of veterans to generate visible impact.
Description
The Mission Continues is a national, nonpartisan nonprofit that empowers veterans to continue their service, and empowers communities with veteran talent, skills and preparedness to generate visible impact.
Veterans possess the drive and desire to serve others, but without access to the tools needed, their potential to make meaningful impact at the local level remains untapped. On the other end of the spectrum growing numbers of communities in this country are under-resourced and being left behind.
At The Mission Continues, we’re on a mission to connect veterans with under-resourced communities.
Our programs in cities across the country deploy veteran volunteers alongside nonprofit partners and community leaders to improve educational resources, increase access to parks and green spaces, foster neighborhood identity, and more.
Our vision is for all veterans with a desire to continue their service to be part of a movement to transform communities.
