ELLEN TURNER
Turner Techtronics Inc.
Ellen Turner, CEO of Turner Techtronics Inc., has been a passionate volunteer and supporter of Exceptional Children’s Foundation (ECF) since 2019. Since beginning her volunteer service for ECF as a member of ECF’s Board of Directors, she has continued to engage as an ardent and innovative catalyst for the nonprofit organization’s growth and impact.
She currently serves as assistant secretary of ECF’s Board of Directors, and chair of the board’s Development Committee, stewarding a $2 million annual fundraising calendar of campaigns, events, and strategic initiatives. She is also a member of the ECF’s three-year Strategic Planning Committee, Executive Committee, Programs Committee and Personnel Committee. In the past year she additionally served as a member of the board’s CEO Succession Task Force, responsible for successfully selecting and transitioning the organization’s leadership to the third president and CEO in ECF’s 77-year history, Veronica Arteaga, in June of 2022.
Turner has brought unprecedented levels of engagement and advocacy in her volunteer role as Chair of the Development Committee for ECF. She revived ECF’s first and longest running Golf Benefit with the launch of the ECF Golf Benefit at Oakmont Country Club in March of last year, raising more than $107,000 for ECF operations.
In re-establishing and hosting this annual event, Turner not only raised significant and much-needed funds for ECF’s life-changing programs, but also fostered critical new connections that will be instrumental in advancing ECF strategic initiatives and enhancing awareness in the Los Angeles Valley and San Gabriel Valley areas.
