If you can coax Foxpro into writing the data out to a Comma Separated Values file, most current databases can import from that.
CSV: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values

What you import into is another matter.  Is the Foxpro DB just a flat database (tables and rows)?  If so, maybe importing into a spreadsheet is all you need.

If you want to use a database, then LibreOffice Base is a freebie that can import Foxpro, though I’ve never tried it. More here:
