Service Platoon Picture

Join us for a fun-filled day of outdoor work! This month we are heading back to the Southside to help complete the build-out of the SSCAN community garden!

Southside Community Action Network Civic Association, or SSCAN for short. SSCAN is on a mission to revitalize the Southside and we are thrilled to be partnering with them. Currently, they are in the process of turning vacant lots into urban gardens - our service project will be the final phase of the build for their 1200 Wilson Ave site. Activities for the day will include fence installation, building out an arbor, and area beatification.

Lunch will be provided!

About The Mission Continues

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.
