Mission:
The Davon Green Franklin
Foundation’s 501 (c) (3) driving goal is to help ensure that United States
citizens understand the hidden dangers associated with international travel. The mission of the foundation is to promote
safety and wellness to individuals that desire to travel abroad.
Vision: The Davon Green Franklin Foundation’s vision is to create travel safety
awareness in the community and throughout the United States, by providing
individuals with information that will help to prevent international deaths,
injuries, and incidents of violence.
What we do:
The Davon Green
Franklin Foundation recognizes students from Western School of Technology
and Environmental Science for academic excellence. The student is presented the
Davon Green Franklin Legacy Award & Scholarship. The Davon Green Franklin Foundation partners with Howard University
each year to promote public awareness through “Surviving Spring Break – 101”, a
program designed to reduce the incidents of Spring Break tragedies. The parents of Davon Green Franklin have shared their son’s story, “Turning
Tragedy into Triumph” while navigating through the cycle of grief. This
workshop offers ways to help families remember their loved one, promote
healing, and to never forget that their loved one’s life still has value.
