The Turner Foundation is a grantmaking nonprofit associated with the family of billionaire media executive Ted Turner. The Foundation primarily supports environmental conservation efforts, but also contributes to left-of-center environmental advocacy groups. Among the Foundation’s initial goals was “developing practices and policies to curb population growth rates,” a long-running interest of Turner’s.
Grantmaking
The Turner Foundation has disbursed about $400 million since its founding. The Foundation’s website states that it disburses around $6 million per year, though recently it has spent significantly less annually. In 2021, the Foundation did not make any grants.
In 2020, the Foundation disbursed only $2.5 million. Grant recipients included the Conservation Energy Network, the Montana Renewable Energy Association, the National Audubon Society, the Property and Environment Research Center, the Resources Legacy Fund, the River Network, the Southeast Energy Efficiency Alliance, the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership, the Trust for Public land, and the World Wildlife Fund. The year’s largest donation, of $535,000, was given to the Turner Endangered Species Fund.
