  • Each year as fall approaches, Veteran Mentors lead the way in ensuring students—particularly those in under-resourced communities—have the tools they need to start the school year with confidence. Thanks to support from generous donors and partners, thousands of youth across the nation are provided backpacks full of new school supplies and character-based curriculum delivered by Veteran Mentors.

    Travis Manion Foundation would love your help in making the children who receive one of these backpacks feel extra special by writing positive letters that will accompany their backpack and friendship bracelet.

    Take a few minutes to watch this video on the TMF motto, "If Not Me, Then Who..."

    Write FOUR positive letters for students in grades K-12 to wish them success with a new school year


    • Start the letter with Dear Student or Hello! or Hi Friend ... something general like that

    • Your letter should talk about at least one of the TMF Character Strengths 

    • Give students examples of how they can be leaders in their school and community

    • Feel free to include pictures or doodles to make your letter special if you'd like



    Mail your FOUR completed letters to:
    Travis Manion Foundation
    c/o Krista Kotsay
    P.O. Box 1485
    Doylestown, PA 18901

    YOU MUST MAIL COMPLETED LETTERS BY MONDAY, JULY 7 SO THEY ARRIVE IN TIME FOR THE BACKPACK PACKING EVENT
