Every new monthly gift will help unlock $10,000 more to protect birds.
NAME: KAREN SHARP SUSTAINER STATUS: Unconfirmed GIVING CHALLENGE DEADLINE: Midnight Friday | | 87 Donors Needed Now To Unlock $10,000 | | | | Dear KAREN, Right now, a devastating two-thirds of North American bird species face increasing risk of extinction as our planet warms. And at a time when we've already lost 3 billion birds in the last 50 years, we can't let any more birds disappear. Will you help, KAREN? We're counting on 87 friends to step up as monthly donors today while every gift will help unlock $10,000 more to protect birds. So please, start your reliable monthly gift now. For vulnerable birds like the Piping Plover, decades of habitat loss and degradation have precipitated a worrying decline. The Piping Plover is listed as an endangered species in the Great Lakes area and threatened in the Northern Great Plains and Atlantic Coast. Science has identified many bird species whose populations are in serious need of protection today—and where the advancing threat of climate change only worsens their outlook of survival. Birds tell us it is not too late, but there is no time to lose. If we act now, we can still protect birds and build healthier, stronger communities too. Audubon has more than a century of experience saving birds. Our proven combination of sound science, focused advocacy, inspiring education, and expert on-the-ground conservation has brought many beloved species back from the brink and has had positive impacts on birds in need like the Piping Plover. Our efforts have created a blueprint for protecting birds across a range of habitats—and we've seen the Piping Plover begin to recover in places where Audubon works. But we need the support of generous people like you to ensure that these birds can continue on a path to a brighter future. We're looking for 87 supporters to start a monthly gift right away to build a safer future—and when you step up today, you'll help unlock $10,000 in additional support to protect birds. Sincerely, The National Audubon Society | | | | |
