2025 Charity Partner – Front Line Foundation

THE FRONT LINE FOUNDATION
The Front Line Foundation (TFLF) has supported Law Enforcement Officers, Firefighters, EMTs and members of the National Guardacross Minnesota. We grant financial support to families of first responders who have died in the line of duty, and we provide support to “beyond the call of duty” recipients who are heroically injured in the line of duty.
The Foundation’s mission is to bridge the gap between death and benefits being paid, which can help families with ongoing expenses. TFLF also provides support inthe purchase of tactical equipment for first responders which is not included in department budgets.
