Serve shoulder-to-shoulder with volunteers from The Mission Continues, which recently joined forces with Travis Manion Foundation. Earth Month projects will focus on meaningful projects that showcase community, sustainability, and shared purpose. 

Celebrate Earth Month with the Travis Manion Foundation Chicago Service Platoon during a powerful day of service and community impact!

Join us on April 25, 2026, from 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM at Bishop Shepard Little (5230 S. Halsted St, Chicago, IL 60609) as we partner with Bishop Shepherd Little and the Brookfield Zoo to support projects that will improve both indoor and outdoor spaces while promoting environmental sustainability.

Throughout the day, volunteers will work together on a variety of hands-on projects designed to strengthen and beautify the community space.

Indoor Projects: Volunteers will help refresh interior spaces through painting, building, and organizing to create a welcoming and functional environment for the community.

Outdoor Projects: Get ready to get your hands dirty! We’ll be installing rainwater collection systems, building custom tool storage solutions, and planting native greenery to support the local ecosystem and promote environmental stewardship.

Whether you're experienced with tools, passionate about gardening, or simply eager to serve, there’s a role for everyone. Come out, connect with fellow volunteers, and help us make a meaningful impact while celebrating our planet.

Come for the service, stay for the community, and help us leave a lasting green footprint together.
