Service Project

9/11 Day of Service

September 14, 2019

07:00 AM - 01:00 PM ADT

Puerto Rico Platoon

Event overview

The Mission Continues is partnering with Starbucks on an incredibly impactful day of service. We are partnering with a local farm to help plant hundreds of coffee trees. The coffee farming industry was deeply affected by Hurricane Maria, so this is a wonderful opportunity for volunteers to help the island rebuild and thrive. On this day of service, we will help 3 farmers with restoring the coffee trees that were destroyed by Hurricane Maria and plant up to 3,600 trees in under 4 hours. We will meet at Centro Communal Tanamá 8:00am and board buses to the three different farms we'll be working at in Adjuntas that are less than 10 minutes away from our meet up location. Starbucks is setting up a shuttle bus for anyone in the San Juan area who want a free ride to and from the service project. Stay tuned for more details on meet up location and time. We hope you can make it!

Who We Are

In 2025, Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) acquired The Mission Continues, bringing two best-in-class organizations together to provide more opportunities for veterans to find community, lead, and serve. Guided by the ethos “If Not Me, Then Who…,” veterans continue their service, build connections, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation. Learn more about TMF at travismanion.org

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.
