Disaster Relief Fund

The PTG Foundation established a Disaster Relief Fund immediately following the Katrina disaster in New Orleans. The Disaster Relief Fund is used to give aid to PTG members who are affected by natural disasters such as tornados, earthquakes, and flooding. Members may request aid for themselves or for another member by contacting the PTG Home Office.
