Serve shoulder-to-shoulder with volunteers from The Mission Continues, which was recently acquired by Travis Manion Foundation. Veterans in Service projects like this one are made possible by support from Navy Federal Credit Union.

Kick off the 18th Annual NatCon with a hands-on service project in Colorado Springs! Join the Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) and Student Veterans of America (SVA), with support from RTX, as we bring veterans and student veterans together to give back, connect, and live the “If Not Me, Then Who…” ethos in action.

This year, we’re partnering with Colorado Youth Outdoors (CYO), a nonprofit helping youth ages 10–18 strengthen relationships with their parents through meaningful outdoor experiences. Founded with military roots and led locally by Marine Corps veteran Martin Trujillo, CYO is excited to collaborate with veterans from across the country.

Our project takes place at Venetucci Farm, a historic property managed by Pikes Peak Community Foundation in partnership with CYO. Volunteers will tackle a variety of projects, including trail clearing, small tree removal, property cleanup, garden and outdoor enhancements, and light construction like building seating or raised beds. It’s a chance to make a lasting impact for youth, families, and the broader Colorado Springs community.

Spots are limited—sign up now, arrive ready to roll up your sleeves, and help us kick off NatCon 2026 with purpose, connection, and impact!
