Travis Manion Foundation

Antoniette Rotolo, manager at Good Stuff Thrift in Doylestown, put together a raffle basket for the Travis Manion Foundation in September for their 9/11 Heroes Run. What an honor it is to contribute to such an amazing organization.

The Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) unites communities to strengthen our nation by empowering veterans and families of fallen heroes to develop character in future generations. In 2007, 1stLt Travis Manion, USMC, was killed in Iraq while saving his wounded teammates. Today, Travis’ legacy lives on in the words he spoke before leaving for his final deployment, “If Not Me, Then Who…”.

Guided by this ethos, veterans continue their service, build connections with each other, 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.

Veterans and families of the fallen often feel isolated post-service, with over 20 of our nation’s heroes dying by suicide each day. TMF takes a proactive approach by addressing root causes including isolation and finding renewed purpose. Our programs focus first on investing in veterans and families of the fallen to improve their mental health and well-being. Then, we provide veterans and survivors opportunities to lead—from mentoring local youth to uniting communities to honor the fallen.
