At a time when more than half of U.S. bird species are in decline, we must all flock together for their protection. So please, be one of the caring friends we're depending on this Earth Day.

Rufous Hummingbird.

Give birds the protection they need this Earth Day—and get your first annual gift matched

EARTH DAY 2023 Your First Annual Gift Matched, Up To $5,000 Match Challenge Deadline: Midnight April 21st Donate Now Dear KAREN, Weighing just a tenth of an ounce, the tiny Rufous Hummingbird is facing a big problem: They've lost two-thirds of their population in the past 50 years alone—and they're on track to lose another 50% in the coming decades as they continue to struggle to find suitable habitat and are forced to contend with a barrage of threats along their lengthy migratory route. The Rufous Hummingbird—and the 69 other vulnerable bird species at a tipping point—need your help today to survive. We're counting on generous people like you to join us with an annual donation right away to protect birds and the places they need. Thanks to a generous group of donors, your first gift will be matched, up to $5,000. An annual gift is a convenient way to provide for birds' future, as it renews automatically each year.

This Earth Day, birds are at a tipping point

More than half of U.S. bird species are in decline.

389 North American bird species are at increasing risk of climate extinction.

3 billion birds have vanished in less than a human lifetime.

The situation is dire—but there's hope in our collective action, and we have practical, effective solutions. Using more than a century of expertise and our proven combination of committed advocacy, empowering education, and expert on-the-ground conservation, we've been able to deliver meaningful results for birds and their habitats. Our positive impact for birds stretches across the hemisphere. Together with bird lovers like you, we've fought for stronger climate action in the Inflation Reduction Act, for coastal community protections and natural infrastructure that also supports bird colonies, and for better water policies across the West. This Earth Day, we're asking for your steady, reliable support to continue this work and protect our natural world. Will you be one of the caring friends we need to join us with an annual donation today? Remember, when you act today, your first gift will be matched to go twice as far for birds and their habitats. Sincerely, National Audubon Society
