Services Available In:Virtually/Remote

The Travis Manion Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization that directly supports veterans, their families, and families of fallen service members.

We do this by providing emergency assistance, scholarships, and other direct financial support when a family or veteran is in need; however, we’ve found the greatest impact and positive change occurs when the military community is challenged to continue to serve. Families who have lost a loved one want nothing more than to honor their memory in a way that exemplifies their sacrifice. Similarly, ve

terans are looking for a mission and purpose once they leave active service. TMF provides the avenues for this growth and healing through our Challenge Grant program. Since our inception TMF has awarded $295,000 in challenge grants and direct support. TMF is committed to both directly serving our military community and transferring their spirit of service and sacrifice into local communities. We do this through our Character Does Matter program and our 9/11 Heroes Run.

· Character Does Matter is designed to engage and empower our youth to serve in their local communities. Through this program we have reached more than 40,000 students.The service projects are inspired by a fallen hero and led by veterans and families of the fallen. The 9/11 Heroes Run is a series of 5 K races held annually on the anniversary of September 11th. Inspired by Travis’ visit to NYFD Rescue One before his final deployment, the 9/11 Heroes Run brings communities together to run, volunteer, donate, and cheer, but most of all: Honor. The 9/11 Heroes Run is an opportunity for people to come together, honor the fallen, and be a part of something greater. With the goal to never forget the sacrifices of all of the heroes of September 11th — veteran, first responder, and civilian. The 9/11 Heroes Run serves as our vehicle to build awareness and direct philanthropy to veteran and first responder charities serving the communities hosting a 9/11 Heroes Run. Up to Fifty percent of net proceeds for each race are granted to partnered charity organizations. We feel the more we work together, both locally and nationally, the greater the impact we will have addressing the myriad of issues affecting veterans.
