The Travis Manion Foundation
The Travis Manion Foundation exists to assist the families of Fallen Heroes and our wounded Veterans.
Travis was asked before he left for Iraq why he had to go and he became known for his response, "If not me, then who". He always placed others before himself and helping those in need was something that came very easily for him. In keeping the spirit of his selfless nature alive, the Travis Manion Foundation continues his mission.
