Event overview

The DC Platoons are teaming up to host a well deserved BBQ. Let's get together to enjoy the fruits of our labor at the Fort Dupont Activity Center! As valued partners, the National Park Service is opening a special part of Fort Dupont Park just for The Mission Continues. Expect great food, games and fellowship! Don't worry, the games are shaping up to be more fun than competitive! Please reach out to a Platoon Leader or Squad Leader if you are interested in being a grill master for the day, leading games, bringing food, etc.

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.
