The Producers Guild of America and Entertainment Community Fund are linking up to help producers in need in the wake of devastating Los Angeles wildfires.
The organizations jointly established a dedicated fund to support producers of film, television and emerging media affected by the fires. The PGA will contribute a portion of the net proceeds from the Producers Guild Awards to the fund, which will also take donations from members. $300,000 has already been committed, per an announcement Tuesday from the PGA, which added that the guild is “heartbroken by the unimaginable devastation and displacement faced by so many in our community.”
