The Community Rewards function has a payback to organizations such as this and is a major fundraiser for Seniors for Kids purchase supplies and to also play "Santa" for children in the Mammoth area. We also help fund their food bank. The tri-city area of Mammoth, San Manuel and Oracle are not supported by many other charities. For more information on this program or to register your Fry's card, go to frysfood.com/topic/new-community-rewards-program.
