His contributions to the arts did not stop at the Performing Arts. He was also actively involved in the Arena Football Team he owned. He shared the board of the team with Jon Bon Jovi, John Ellway, the Van Dosses (owners of Amway), and Jerry Jones (owner of Dallas Cowboys). Peter Loftin also started and was the named sponsor of the BTI senior tennis events in Raleigh and Atlanta which featured tennis greats Jimmy Connors and John Mc Enroe.

His company, BTI, was honored as the corporate citizen of the year by the NC disability association for providing free Internet service to all disabled citizens in NC. Peter was presented with the prestigious award during a ceremony when the Governor himself, Jim Hunt, bestowed him with the honor. Peter also contributed to charities focusing on veterans; giving one gift to ASCOM, which is the special ops and airborne museum at Fort Bragg. After 9/11 Peter worked closely with the Raleigh Fire Chief to give an incredible donation of $1 million dollars to the police commissioner of NYC.
One of Peter's most cherished charities are those that involve children. Peter volunteered at the Boys and Girls club in Atlanta and was honored for starting Loftin's 2 on 2 basketball competition throughout Atlanta. He has also given to the North Carolina Museum of Science and started Camp BTI, which is a Boys and Girls Club of America Camp for Kids. He also supports Oak Ranch Facility for Troubled Teens.
