The Honor Project 2026
Who & What:
Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) mobilizes volunteers across the country to pay respect to fallen heroes on and around Memorial Day. TMF will hold events at 66 cemeteries, where volunteers will place hand-crafted commemorative tokens at the resting places of fallen heroes and pause to reflect on their service and sacrifice.
When & Where:
May 16, 17, 22, 23, 24, 25, and 30, 2026 at participating cemeteries (local times).
Register:
Get involved and register to participate at one of the listed volunteer opportunities. Volunteer registration for TMF events will close on May 16, 2026. Donations are not required to participate or to submit your fallen hero.
Share:
Participants are encouraged to post photos or tributes to the Veterans they are honoring on VA's Veterans Legacy Memorial (VLM). Volunteers, family and friends can share these directly from the VLM Memorial pages by email or on social media with family and friends at: www.va.gov/Remember
Watch: The Honor Project
If your family member or battle buddy is resting at a participating cemetery, submit their name and a TMF volunteer serving at our Memorial Day event will visit them, lay a hand-crafted commemorative token, and pause for a moment of reflection.
As with every effort we make to honor the fallen, this comes at no cost to you. Simply enter their name and information at the form linked below and our TMF volunteers will pay tribute to them. Volunteers will text or email you a photo directly once they have placed their token.
