MLK Day of Service at Bellevue Edible Learning Lab

January 18, 2020

09:00 AM - 12:00 PM CST

Nashville Platoon

Event overview

Nashville 1st Service Platoon invites you to participate in The Mission Continues' national campaign to honor the legacy of service of Martin Luther King Jr. by embodying the values Dr. King championed during the civil rights movement. This year we will be returning to Bellevue Edible Learning Lab to get our hands a little dirty as we support Bell Garden's mission "to provide practical learning opportunities for residents of the community in a setting that promotes physical activity, healthy eating, environmental stewardship, and multi-cultural connections for all generations". This was a wonderful event last year and is a great opportunity to connect with other platoon members and build camaraderie as we serve together in our community! No previous garden experience necessary! We will learn together as we grow!

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.
