| About the Massachusetts Run for the Fallen | |
| Massachusetts Run For The Fallen (MARFTF) is a Military Friends Foundation project dedicated to keeping alive the memory of our military Heroes that gave their lives to protect our freedom since September 11, 2001.
We are a group of runners, walkers and support crew whose mission is clear and simple: To run in honor every Massachusetts service member who lost there lives in Operation Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom and New Dawn. 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. |
