"Independent agents are an integral part of our business and following the recent hurricanes, we've learned many who have been working tirelessly assisting our mutual customers to begin the recovery process have also been personally impacted by the devastation," said, Progressive President and CEO Tricia Griffith said in a press release.

We encourage all agents and agency employees affected by recent disasters across the country and in need of financial support to consider applying and taking advantage of these grants."
