Ironbound Clean Up

Newark Platoon

Event overview

Join us in cleaning up the Ironbound Boxing Academy! In recent weeks, the City Of Newark began renovating the Ironbound Athletic Complex where the gym is located. In the process, severe debris saturated the gym making it impossible for Newark boxing students to train. They need our help to come and clear the area for the students to train. The Ironbound Boxing Academy is led by Mike Steadman, a Naval Academy grad and Marine Veteran. They proudly dedicate a significant percentage of proceeds to fund free boxing programs for inner-city youth. We hope to see you there!

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.
