Our Impact

The Fred Mayer Foundation was established in memory of Fred Mayer — Hungarian immigrant, founder of F Mayer Imports (now Mayer Fine Foods), lifelong water polo man, and someone who genuinely lived by the philosophy that "everyone's a mate." The Foundation carries that spirit forward through the various Charities it supports.
