Dear KAREN,
The Golden-cheeked Warbler is already endangered. It nests only in a tiny area of Central Texas, and as development encroaches on its habitat, its numbers have dwindled.
But its greatest challenge is climate change. There's still time to help the Golden-cheeked Warbler and many other climate-threatened birds, and birds are telling us it's time to act now.
Tomorrow marks Endangered Species Day and we're asking you to commit to protecting at-risk birds with a dependable monthly gift. Before midnight tonight, be one of the 50 donors needed to unlock an additional $5,000 for birds in need.
Climate change poses a serious threat to all of us, but here's what it means for birds: If we stay on our current path, two-thirds of North American bird species are at risk of extinction.
But you can help change that. As we've learned time and again, what's good for birds is good for the planet—and that's good for people too.
Upholding and strengthening bedrock protections for birds, like the Endangered Species Act and Migratory Bird Treaty Act, gives them safety today while we work for their long-term survival. That includes restoring and preserving the resilient landscapes that make up healthy bird habitats. Those landscapes, in turn, have incredible power to absorb and store atmospheric carbon—a key natural solution to climate change.
It's all connected, KAREN, and Audubon treats it as a powerful whole. Through advocacy, education, and hands-on conservation work, all guided by science, we protect birds and the places they need, today and tomorrow. The climate action we lead creates a better future for birds—and with your support, they'll all be better off.
But that can only happen if we can count on you today. Will you join us in protecting birds when they need us so urgently now?
Start your monthly gift today, before this giving challenge ends at midnight, and do your best for birds this Endangered Species Day. Sincerely,
National Audubon Society
