Earlier this week, the Producers Guild announced a partnership with the Entertainment Community Fund to establish a dedicated fund supporting producers of film, television and emerging media affected by the fires. The Guild is contributing a portion of the net proceeds from the Producers Guild Awards to the fund. In addition to the Guild’s contribution, members are also donating. Together, $300,000 has already been committed.

If there is a producer in need of financial assistance from the devastation caused by the fires, they can provide their contact information and eligibility criteria will be sent: https://producersguild.tfaforms.net/5133847.

For anyone able to contribute to supporting producers who are struggling financially due to the fires, a donation site has been started here: entertainmentcommunity.org/2025CAfiresPGA.

Producers will come together to raise awareness for the fund, celebrate our nominees and announce winners at the PGA Awards ceremony on Saturday, February 8, 2025 at the Fairmont Century Plaza.
