Earth Day at SSCAN Urban Garden

April 27, 2019

08:00 AM - 02:00 PM EDT

Columbus OH Platoon

Event overview

Join us to celebrate Earth Day (a few days late!) and kick off a new partnership with the Southside Community Action Network Civic Association, or SSCAN for short. SSCAN is on a mission to revitalize the Southside and we are thrilled to be partnering with them. Currently, they are in the process of turning vacant lots into urban gardens and our Earth Day of Service will be the first of multiple projects at their 1200 Wilson Ave site. Activities for the day are still TBD, but will likely include setting fence posts, building additional garden boxes and prepping the space for the Spring growing season. Lunch will be provided

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.
