The campaign introduces symbolic giving levels framed in “lumens,” reflecting the warmth, clean baseload power, comfort, and benefits of geothermal resources.

We're inviting people to give a gift that reaches beyond the holidays in support of Geothermal's future. Philanthropy makes things possible that policy and markets cannot do alone.”
— Dr. Bryant Jones, Executive Director, Geothermal Rising

PALM SPRINGS, CA, UNITED STATES, November 26, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Geothermal Rising today announced the launch of its holiday Major Gifts program, Give the Gift of Light, inviting supporters to honor loved ones with contributions that advance geothermal innovation, expand community access and strengthen public understanding of clean, always-on energy and abundant heating and cooling sources.

The seasonal campaign introduces three symbolic giving levels framed in “lumens,” reflecting the warmth, coziness, comfort, clarity and long-term value of geothermal energy. A Spark ($100) provides 5,000 lumens, supports students and early-career professionals and includes a gift copy of Our Hidden Powers. A Glow ($250) contributes 25,000 lumens, includes the book and recognizes the honoree in the Geothermal Rising Bulletin. A Beam of Light ($500) delivers 50,000 lumens, supports all program pillars and includes recognition in both the Bulletin and the Legacy & Luminary Library on the organization’s donation page.

These gifts sustain Geothermal Rising’s core pillars: Science & Innovation, Community & Equity and Storytelling & Visibility. Donor support enables research grants, student and career programs, the Geothermal Rising Conference, educational workshops, Regional Interest Groups, the Indigenous Geothermal Symposium and public-facing storytelling efforts such as the GC@C Newsletter and Geothermal 101 resources.

“This season, we’re inviting people to give a gift that reaches far beyond the holidays,” said Dr. Bryant Jones, executive director of Geothermal Rising. “Philanthropy makes things possible that policy and markets cannot do alone. Every Spark, Glow or Beam of Light helps expand the geothermal industry’s role in a cleaner, more resilient future.”

Supporters may dedicate their gift in honor or in memory of someone meaningful. Personalized acknowledgment letters are sent to honorees, and donors may request anonymity if preferred.
“Geothermal is ready now,” Jones said. “A Gift of Light ensures the programs, people and pathways that move this industry forward continue to grow.”
