Our Fund's Mission

Stand Strong for Those Who Serve

Since our founding in 1866, the Detroit Firemen’s Fund Association for the Relief of Disabled Firemen has been dedicated to making a difference. Through the generosity of our members, donors, and supporters, we are able to:

  • Provide Critical Assistance to injured firefighters facing hardships.

  • Honor Our Fallen Heroes by coordinating firefighter funeral services with the utmost dignity and respect.

  • Preserve Tradition by maintaining the breathtakingly restored 1937 Seagrave Memorial Rig, used in firefighter funerals and public ceremonies.

  • Support Community Initiatives such as the Detroit Fire Department Clown Team, Honor Guard, and Hockey Team, which foster camaraderie and bring joy to our community.
