MLK Day of Service!

January 18, 2020

10:00 AM - 02:00 PM EST

Newark Platoon

Event overview

Join us for Martin Luther King Jr's Day of Service at East Side High School. For decades, Newark has been working on major initiatives to improve their public school system. As much as this is a success, projects and plans can take time until completion. With the help of the Newark Platoon members, we are able to provide the sweat equity in man(women)power and resources to help achieve their goal. Work alongside students, teachers, and parents on reimagining their classrooms with awesome colors. This is an essential part of their learning experience. We are looking forward to you joining us in making a positive change on MLK Weekend! We will be painting. The Newark Platoon will be providing lunch. Kick-off 2020 with this amazing project.

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.
