Veterans with the national nonprofit, The Mission Continues; active-duty personnel; and community volunteers came together the third week of June this year for one week to participate in Operation Charm City Charge, a project to beautify parks and transform vacant lots on Baltimore’s Westside into places of peace and pleasure where residents are able to enjoy the outdoors and their surrounding safely.
The Mission Continues has been active in Baltimore for the last four years. Operation Charm City Charge is their team-based program in collaboration with local organizations, including: Highland Park West Community Association; I Step Forward Recovery Program; Baltimore City Police Department Western District; and Operation Safe and Clean.
