Why Choose Us?
Experienced & Qualified Staff
Life Fountain was established in April 2007 and has become one of the most reputable service providers in Minnesota, thanks to God who gave us the vision and opened the doors to open the company. We have continued to grow since then and one thing remains constant: We strive to place the persons we serve at the core of everything we do.
​
The company name originated from the Spanish phrase “Manantial de Vida”, which translates to English as “spring/waterfall of life”. Thus, the company became Life Fountain.
​
We thank God for putting people in our path that have provided us support and look to pass that on by providing the best service to you!
