Event overview

The Killeen Platoon will be supporting Killeen Creators with the launch of their new teen program where we will use this event as a means to recruit teens and introduce them to the transformative power of gardening, mentorship, and community building. We invite volunteers and teens to participate in hands-on activities such as building garden beds and planting seeds while learning about the program's leadership values, community building, empathy, and mentorship. This event is designed to inspire teens to take an active role in creating a compassionate and sustainable garden space, fostering personal growth and meaningful impact in their community.

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.
