| | | 91 donors needed to unlock $15,000 | | | | Dear KAREN, Last year, the western United States saw its driest conditions in recorded history—and as a result, rivers, lakes, wetlands, and the birds that depend on them are suffering. Birds can't endure such severe weather, and as the climate changes, these types of extremes could become more and more common. But we have the tools and knowledge that can help more birds survive. And when you support Audubon, you're giving birds their best chance at a more hopeful future. Today your monthly gift can help unlock $15,000 more to protect birds and their habitats everywhere we work. World Water Day is tomorrow so please join us as one of the 91 new monthly donors we need right away. Climate change is increasingly impacting all of us—threatening a staggering two in three North American bird species with extinction, while jeopardizing our food supplies and economies, our air quality, and the water all life depends on. The current megadrought is a warning of what could lie ahead. This situation is urgent, but birds tell us it's not too late to act. With more than a century of conservation expertise informing our efforts today, we know that we can create a more hopeful climate future for birds and people alike. Thanks to your generosity, we're working to restore and protect crucial water and wetlands for birds. And our efforts are paying off: We've helped restore flows to the once-neglected Colorado River Basin, unlocked emergency funding for drought-stricken waterbird habitat in California's Central Valley, and more. These victories demonstrate that even in the face of this code-red climate crisis, our actions can help save birds. And you can become a part of it with your sustaining support. So ahead of World Water Day, please help with your monthly gift. Commit to the long-term protection birds need, while it will help unlock an additional $15,000. We need just 91 friends to join in today's giving challenge—it ends at midnight tomorrow, so please don't wait. Sincerely, The National Audubon Society | | | | |
