On the road for the ones who make it happen. 🏃‍♂️🔥

Our very own Dan Smith hit the highway with the LETR Montana World Tour, connecting with law enforcement agencies across the state and celebrating the officers who make the Torch Run possible.

Every mile of the Torch Run starts with an officer who laces up, shows up, and carries the flame for Special Olympics athletes. We’re proud to sponsor this work, and prouder still of the people behind it.

Thank you to every agency and officer who runs, fundraises, and cheers on Montana’s Special Olympics athletes. 🙌

💙 September is National Su***de Prevention Awareness Month.

Behind every badge is a person carrying the weight of what they see and experience on the job, weight that doesn’t always end at the end of a shift. At MPPAF, we believe no one in the law enforcement family should carry that burden alone.

If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out:
📞 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline (call or text)
📞 Copline: 1-800-267-5463 (confidential, 24/7, staffed by retired law enforcement)

You are not alone, and asking for help is a sign of strength. 💙

🎓 Because of MPPAF, a new generation of Montana students is chasing their dreams.

Since 1989, the MPPA Memorial Scholarship Fund has helped children of active, retired, and medically retired law enforcement members pursue higher education, easing the financial weight so students can focus on what matters: their future.

Renewable for up to 5 years, this scholarship doesn’t just help for a semester. It helps build a future.

This is what community support makes possible.

🇺🇸 Never Forget.
Twenty-five years ago, our nation watched police officers, firefighters, and first responders run toward danger to save others.

Today, we honor the law enforcement officers who gave their lives on September 11th, and we remember the thousands more who answered the call in the days and years that followed.

At MPPAF, we carry that same spirit forward, standing behind Montana’s law enforcement families in their moments of need, just as they stand ready to protect ours.

🕊️ We remember. We honor. We stand behind those who serve.
