Please join us in recognizing Andrew Collinson for his unwavering commitment to honoring the legacy of fallen first responders.

In his involvement with nonprofit organization , Andrew runs in tribute to first responders who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. During each run, he carries a Thin Blue Line flag representing the fallen hero's department. After each run, that flag is delivered to the family and/or agency of the fallen first responder, along with a handwritten note.

On March 18, Andrew's dedication and service was formally recognized at the Georgia State Capitol, where he was presented with a resolution by Chairman Lee Hawkins. The University of North Georgia Public Safety Department was honored to be represented, extending their sincere gratitude to Andrew and to support him in his continued mission to honor fallen first responders.
