TPUSA to match federal contributions to 'Trump Accounts' for employees' newborns in honor of Charlie Kirk

In a move aimed at supporting young families, Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk announced on Wednesday that the organization will match the federal government's $1,000 contribution to "Trump Accounts" for eligible employees' newborns, dollar-for-dollar. The initiative is presented as a tribute to TPUSA's late founder, Charlie Kirk, a lifelong advocate of family values who was assassinated last year.

Erika Kirk, Charlie's widow and mother of two young children, wrote in an X post: "Charlie spoke so often about the importance of young families and having children, and his face would light up every time he learned about a Turning Point employee welcoming a newborn into their family."

"In that spirit," she continued, "TPUSA and TPAction are honored to continue Charlie's support of families through a company-sponsored dollar-for-dollar match of the federal government's $1,000 contribution to the 503A "Trump Account" established for every eligible employee's newborn baby. We're proud to stand with POTUS in supporting families and investing in the future of America."

The "Trump Account" program is a cornerstone of President Trump's pro-family policies. It provides an initial $1,000 government seed contribution to savings accounts for US citizen children born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028. Parents or guardians can contribute up to $5,000 annually until the child turns 18, with funds intended for education, home purchases, or other qualified expenses. The accounts aim to give newborns a financial head start.

TPUSA's decision aligns with Kirk's public emphasis on building legacies through family and passing down values, as echoed in past statements like "Get married. Have children. Build a legacy." Erika Kirk vowed to continue Charlie's mission following his assassination.
