The DGF Foundation is committed to helping individuals to understand the hidden dangers and vulnerabilities associated with international travel.https://
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.
