About The Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund

The Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund (MSLF) has been established to specifically help the children of Massachusetts Servicemen and Women who have died while deployed on operations Enduring and Iraqi Freedom. The MSLF is specifically designed to grant funds for current and future college/university students whose parent's "home of record" at the Department of Defense was Massachusetts and were killed on deployment during Operations Enduring or Iraqi Freedom.

Last years event was held in memory of Jeremy Paul Bouffard, a native of Middlefield, Ma. and Corporal with the United States Army, who was killed in the line of duty along with thirteen other soldiers on August 22, 2007 when his helicopter crashed in Multaka, Iraq. Jeremy's family was honored at the event and Jeremy's three year old son, Caleb, threw out the first pitch. Over $6000 was raised for CCS and the Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund. CCS and MSLF are 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations.
