Military Friends Foundation aka Friends of the National Guard & Reserve Families

Description

Military Friends Foundation offers financial assistance, referral services and community building activities to support military families and Families of the Fallen.

In 2012, Military Friends Foundation announced a new project - Massachusetts Run For The Fallen. MA Run For The Fallen is dedicated to keeping alive the memory of military Heroes that gave their lives to protect our freedoms since September 11, 2001.

We are a group of runners, walkers and support crew whose mission is clear and simple: To run in honor of every Massachusetts service member who has lost their life since the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan began. Each mile of sweat and pain and each flag saluted is to pay homage to one service member’s life and their family.

We run to raise awareness for the lives of those who died, to rejuvenate their memories and keep their spirits alive. We run to raise support for programs that assist the families of the fallen and to aid in the healing process for Massachusetts residents whose lives have been affected by war.

MARFTF has no political affiliation or agenda, but simply honor those who have fought, and those who have fallen under the American Flag.
