Twice a year, retired members of Clifton FMBA 21 gather in sunny Florida to reconnect, reminisce, and celebrate the brotherhood forged through years of service. These meet-ups are more than just social events—they are a testament to the dedication and sacrifices of those who came before us.
Thanks to these retirees, today’s firefighters benefit from the hard-fought advancements in safety, working conditions, and benefits that they helped secure. Their legacy continues to shape the future of the fire service, ensuring that new generations are well-equipped to carry the torch.
To all our retired members—thank you for paving the way. Your contributions will never be forgotten!

The Clifton FMBA 21 recently concluded its Annual Coat Drive, collecting nearly 300 coats with the help of generous donations from Clifton residents. Throughout October, Clifton firehouses served as drop-off locations, allowing the community to come together to support those in need. The coats were then delivered to St. Peter’s Haven. Thank you to all who contributed to making this drive a success—your generosity has brought warmth to many this season.
It’s that time of year! The 2024 Clifton Fire Department Pet Food Drive begins today!

Clifton FMBA 21 was proud to partner with Rebuilding Together North Jersey and the American Red Cross for a successful Fire Safety Day event on Saturday, October 5, 2024. Over 50 volunteers joined forces to enhance fire safety in the Botany Village section of Clifton, installing 600 smoke detectors (donated by the Red Cross) with 10-year lithium batteries, as well as carbon monoxide detectors in homes throughout the area. Along with the installations, educational materials were provided to each homeowner, raising awareness about fire safety and prevention. It was a meaningful effort to protect and educate our community!
