Operation Vet Check (Orientation)

October 15, 2020

07:00 PM - 08:00 PM EDT

New York City Platoon

Event overview

Please join us for an orientation covering the future work associated with Operation Vet Check, a new project our platoon will be participating in as we work to combat the social isolation many of us have felt during the COVID pandemic, especially our city's veterans. Operation Vet Check is an initiative being taken on by a couple of NYC non-profit organizations to include ourselves, working in collaboration with our city's Department of Veteran Services. Our goal will be to call our city's veterans on a weekly basis to check in with them, pass on any resources they may need and ensure they know they have a team behind them at the NYC Department of Veterans Services who are only a phone call away. Our orientation will set up what you can expect with regard to the level of our volunteer's commitment levels, what kinds of training and support our team will provide our platoon's volunteers and lastly, what kind of real time feedback is coming back from these calls being made by other organizations working within the same operation. We will hold a couple of orientation meetings via zoom in order we can work around everyone's calendar and look forward to connecting with you all soon.

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.
