Our Family of Companies Rally to Provide Hurricane Relief

DMC Harvey Relief Effort

TSI Harvey Benefit Fundraiser

PDM's Reliance Cares Drive

Diamond Manufacturing Company teamed up with West Wyoming Borough, and the results were overwhelming! We collected donations from Tuesday, September 5, through Friday, September 8, and sent two tractor trailer loads of clothes, bottled water, cleaning supplies, pet food, and other non-perishable items to the Harvey relief effort in Texas. Our employees also donated over $1,300 to Reliance Cares. Thank you to everyone for your donations and your help in making this project a success! Liebovich: Double Match Through a company-wide effort at all of their locations, Liebovich Bros. raised $7,000 in employee contributions to Reliance Cares – which the company then matched, and which Reliance, in turn, matched. All told, the donation to Reliance Cares was $28,000: enough to provide immediate response funds to over 50 Reliance families. Thank you, Liebovich!

Many Tubular Steel employees in Katy, Texas, and Savannah, Georgia, were directly impacted by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. In support or our employees, the TSI corporate office organized a fundraiser on September 19, in St. Louis, Missouri, to benefit Reliance Cares. Employees held a potluck lunch with grilled hamburgers, side dishes, and desserts at a cost of $5 per person. We also held a 50/50 raffle and organized a funny photo contest. Fifteen photos were submitted and employees voted as many times as they wanted at a cost of $1 per vote. The winner of the 50/50 raffle took home half of the cash, and the funny photo contest winner received a big pat on the back. All in all, we are pleased to announce that the Tubular Steel employees raised $766 to benefit Reliance Cares. A big thank you goes to all the Tubular Steel employees in St. Louis who donated in one way or another to make this a successful fundraiser.

In response to Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, PDM Steel’s Corporate office raised funds during the month of September to aid their fellow Reliance employees. During our fundraising kickoff meeting, one of our employees shared that her family had been directly impacted by the natural disaster that wreaked havoc in the greater Houston area. As a result, they were forced to leave their home and seek refuge in a local shelter. Her inspiring story motivated the office to jump in and donate what they could.

In the short month of September, PDM's 17

employees came together and reached their ultimate goal of $4,000 raised!

Currently, PDM employees across the company are also participating in similar fundraising initiatives for Reliance Cares and the company plans to host additional efforts in 2018 and beyond.
