WHO WE ARE The Cleveland Fire Fighters Memorial Fund CFFMF is a 501 c 3 nonprofit organization registered with the Ohio Secretary of State and the IRS. We were incorporated in 1993 with the sole purpose of building a memorial to honor the 77 brave Cleveland Fire Fighters who gave their lives in the line of duty. In 2007 we dedicated the memorial a colorful fiberglass statue of two fire fighters putting out large flames created by nationally acclaimed sculptor Luis Jimenez. The Cleveland Fire Fighters Memorial Fund is overseen by a Board of Trustees who are committed to maintaining a dignified memorial to those who have given their lives to the protection of the residents and visitors of the City of Cleveland.
