Service Project

Pathway to Success

November 12, 2016

10:00 AM - 04:00 PM PST

Seattle Platoon

Event overview

As a Platoon, we will have come full circle on 11/12/16. Last November, we began our first project introducing our Platoon to the Rainier Beach community by cleaning up these same pathways, while having fun. During our past year in the Community, we have supported the businesses along Rose St and the Ethiopian Community Center through cleanup, the Rainier Beach Urban Garden, Rainier Beach High School, and these important Pathways the students use to get to and from the Library and High School. We will assist with curbside cleanup, graffiti removal, painting, weeding, and mulching. While we're at it, we'll swing a few hammers, and fire up the saws. There will be projects for all, as we aim to restore this well-used path (a main route for kids heading to the library after school) to it's original beauty. Lunch? No worries....we will provide lunch. Why this weekend? Because it's Veterans Day Weekend and we are #ReportingForDuty. Let's show everyone the power that The Mission Continues brings to the table.

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.
