TIA offers hurricane recovery resource assistance

Sept. 8, 2004

The Tire Industry Association (TIA) is offering resource assistance to its members in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina who have been affected by Hurricanes Charley and Frances.

TIA members can call (800) 876-8372, ext. 103, to get a listing of help available in their state, including how to register for help from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, state government contacts and recovery assistance information via the Small Business Administration.

"We wanted to do something to help our members in this time of need and felt if we offered one central resource, it could reduce the time time our members would have to search for contact information," says TIA Executive Director Roy Littlefield.
