Event overview

Join us for a community event at Dix Street Garden as we embark on an exciting journey towards enhancing accessibility for all! We're gearing up to level out the main lot and could use your helping hands in relocating their existing garden beds. Additionally, we'll be refurbishing the horseshoe pit and benches in the adjoining park and sprucing up the surrounding area with a bit of clean-up. Lastly, we'll be working on raising the front gate area to welcome everyone with open arms. Your participation and support are invaluable as we continue to foster a vibrant community space. Let's make a difference together!

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.
