Event overview

In honor of MLK Jr Day 2025, The Mission Continues Columbus, GA 1st Service Platoon will be returning to MLK Elementary School to help improve the space for our young learners. In cooperation with the school leadership, we have identified the need for resources to help the playground to be a clean and safe environment. Our partner has also requested that we help them work towards having an outdoor classroom. Together, we will work to improve this space for the students and faculty of MLK Jr Elementary School.

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.
