| | | 175 new monthly donors needed to unlock $20,000 | | | | Dear KAREN, This fall, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service shared its plan to declare 11 birds officially extinct. It's the largest such announcement ever made. Yet more extinctions are sure to follow—unless we act urgently to prevent them. People in the Audubon community showed up with love and generosity yesterday for Giving Tuesday, making their best gifts to protect birds and the places they need. Now, we're calling on you to keep up the momentum with a new giving challenge: If 175 new monthly donors join us by midnight tonight, you'll unlock another $20,000 for birds! Don't miss this chance to amplify your impact for birds in need. Start a monthly gift today and give the birds you love protection they can count on. There's no greater wildlife tragedy than a species going extinct. We lose its unique joys forever, and the ecosystems it used to inhabit are forever changed. It's too late to help the birds declared extinct this fall, but for so many others, there's still time for them to survive. Unless we act, a bird like the tiny Golden-cheeked Warbler could be next on the extinction list. Its already-narrow habitat is shrinking fast. But this vivid songbird is one of the species Audubon has identified that will benefit most from your help. With your support, we'll help protect and restore critical habitats that birds like the Golden-cheeked Warbler depend on. To protect more birds and the places they need, Audubon uses advocacy and hands-on conservation work that are grounded in science, focusing our efforts where they can have the greatest impact on birds in need. From defending the Endangered Species Act to restoring key habitats to resilience, we can tip the balance for birds at risk. But we can't delay. With three billion birds lost in just the past 50 years, we need to act now, before we lose more species to extinction. Please do your best for birds with a monthly gift today: not only will you provide support Audubon can depend on, but when you donate by midnight, you'll help power our best efforts by unlocking this special $20,000 giving challenge. Thank you again, KAREN, for all you do for birds. We're glad to have you with us. Sincerely, The National Audubon Society | | | | |
