Event overview

Chicago Warrior Week will kick off with a service project in Little Village on Sept 14th, but to set it up for success, vital prep work needs to be done at several of the project locations! We will meet at Universidad Popular and will be working at multiple locations, within walking distance. Partners like Universidad Popular, Enlace and Beyond the Ball will be hosting volunteers as part of Operation Little Village, a multi-year plan to support the organizations operating in the area that focus on youth, gang violence, education and hunger. If you are interested in setting the Chicago 2nd up for success as they kick-off Warrior Week, then please join us on the 13! Please have each adult sign up individually

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.
