Ways to Give
Together We Have the Power
Collectively, we are making a difference for residents and businesses across California. Your gift supports TURN efforts to make California utilities more affordable and hold corporations accountable to ratepayers. TURN’s work helps ensure that legislators in Sacramento and Commissioners on the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) prioritize what California needs, over shareholder profit. Together, we are ensuring equity, accessibility, and affordability for utility consumers and supporting a sustainable future for our planet.
Become a Monthly Donor or give one-time:
As a monthly donor, you become part of a strong foundation that keeps us going! Donate one time and help us get our work over the finish line.
Consider Doubling Your Impact!
You can also make a gift in the name of a friend or family member, introducing them to TURN and helping us grow our network.
Planned Giving and Tax-Favorable Gifts
In addition to one-time or monthly donations, there are many ways to support our work and help make California more affordable for everyone. If you have questions about anything, please reach out to CJ using the link below.
Planned Gift — The Sylvia Siegel Legacy Fund
You can make a residuary or specific bequest to TURN by including language in your will or living trusts or by designating TURN as a beneficiary of your retirement account or life insurance policy.

Corporate Match
Many employers sponsor matching gift programs and will match charitable contributions made by their employees. Check with your employer to see if your company will match your donation. You may be able to double or triple your end-of-year giving!
Smart Giving from Your IRA
You can make a difference today and save on taxes by making a charitable gift through your IRA.
Give Directly from Your Donor Advised Fund (DAF)
You can make a gift to TURN directly from the provider who holds your DAF in a single, seamless, and secure transaction.
Give through Stock Transfer
One of the most valuable ways to contribute to TURN is via a gift of stock or other securities, such as bonds or mutual funds. The full value of your gift is tax-deductible, provided it has been held for at least one year, and there is no obligation to pay any capital gains tax on the appreciated value.
We are here to help!
