Mission:
The Davon Green Franklin Foundation’s
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.
This program has actively engaged students at Howard University, Coppin
State University, Morgan State University, Tulane University, Dillard
University Towson University, Stevenson University, University of Maryland
Baltimore County, Maryland Institutes of College of Art and the Community
College of Baltimore County-Catonsville.
Students are also given the opportunity to take the Surviving Spring
Break pledge. “I pledge to refuse, reduce, and remove all risks associated with
Spring Break.”
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.
The Davon Green
Franklin Foundation is working with community leaders, community
organizers, churches and civic organizations to help warn individuals about the
key problems areas of international travel.
