Gifts matched dollar for dollar, up to $20,000
| We need 211 friends right away | | | | Dear KAREN, Every spring, hundreds of Caspian Terns descend upon an abandoned concrete factory in West Seattle and nest on its flat, sandy roof. Ordinarily the birds raise their chicks on this faux beach in relative peace. But not this year. When record temperatures drove scores of chicks to fling themselves from their nests in a desperate attempt to escape the summer heat, it made it all too clear that birds are in crisis now. It's a call to action we won't ignore. Today, you have the chance to do twice as much to help. Make your best gift for birds and their habitats now, when a one-day match can instantly double your impact up to $20,000. The loss of these chicks made headlines in 2021—and graphically proved that climate change is affecting birds today. As we look to 2022, birds continue to face a variety of threats to the places they need to survive. With two-thirds of North American birds already at risk, every additional danger that contributes to climate change pushes them closer to extinction. Against the daunting challenges ahead, birds need a champion. In YOU, they have one. It is only through your support that Audubon can work towards practical, achievable solutions that address the impacts of climate change. It is because of you we can protect important habitats and make them more resilient. You make it possible to support renewable energy options that don't worsen climate change. Everything we can achieve depends on friends like you. KAREN, birds are counting on you and the power of your generosity this holiday season. Answer their call to action today, and take advantage of this match opportunity to double your year-end gift. Sincerely, The National Audubon Society | | | | |
