The following are programs that the Fry Fire District used in Public Education:

Firefighters Food and Toy Drive: Food, toys, and money collected by firefighters of the Fry Fire District and Sierra Vista Fire Department to provide needy families with food and toys on Christmas. Approximately 325 families in the greater Sierra Vista area benefited from this program.

Car Seat Program: We have 8-certified technicians who are certified on how to properly install car seats. We teach parents the proper way to install their child's car seat and if they are unable to afford a car seat we will give them one. Call for an appointment at 378-2665.

Call to Protect: In this program we are a collection point for used unwanted cell phones. The phones are then turned over to a local cell phone vendor who will then check them and reprogram with "911" and then distributed them back out to the Sierra Vista Public Schools. The cell phones are used as a back-up to the hardwired phones in case of emergencies. We have provided over 100-working cells phones to classrooms. 

F.A.R.M.: "Firefighters as Role Models" is a program where an Engine Company goes to a school and has lunch with the kids. They are there to just hang out with the kids and be positive role models for them or go to classes to read to the kids. All this is done to give the children a chance to get to know their local firefighters and start feeling comfortable around them. Please call 378-2222 and ask for the Fire Marshal.

911 Relief Fund: The Fry Fire District and Sierra Vista Fire Department joined together to raise funds for the families of the firefighters lost on 9/11. We raised over $32,000.00 for this cause.

Supplies for the Wise: Program is used to raise money so that we can purchase schools supplies and distribute them out equally to the local schools. Donations may be dropped off at any fire station. Last year 2010 we collect over $5,000 in supplies for area schools thanks to the public.

Free Smoke Detectors: We current are giving away free smoke detectors to citizens how can't afford them. This program was funded in part by the Sierra Vista Fly Casters. For an appointment please call 378-2222 and ask for the Fire Marshal.
