TCSG Foundation Emergency Response Fund
In times of crisis in Georgia, TCSG becomes a critical partner in response. TCSG personnel from around the state often step up to fill critical roles. TCSG colleges open their doors to provide space for crisis staging. TCSG campuses serve as critical hubs for communication links, providing security, food and water for first responders, fuel and transport of essential supplies and real-time coordination with responding agencies.
