Get your first annual gift matched for birds like the Allen's Hummingbird.
| Our Match Challenge is almost over—and with it, your opportunity to have your first annual gift go twice as far for birds and their habitats. At a time when 3 billion birds have vanished in just the last 50 years and more than half of U.S. bird species are in decline, we're in a code-red crisis. We need to do everything in our power to protect those that remain. | | | | |
Dear KAREN, "It's death by a million cuts." That's how Ken Rosenberg, a conservation biologist with Road to Recovery, characterized the crisis facing more than half of bird species in the U.S. For birds like the Allen's Hummingbird, decades of habitat loss and degradation, disturbance from people and pets, and climate change have left them in a worrying decline. We're counting on bird lovers like you to join us as annual donors before midnight. Thanks to a group of generous donors, your first gift will be matched, up to $5,000, to help birds like the Allen's Hummingbird survive. Will you be one of them? An annual gift is a convenient way to provide for birds' future, as it renews automatically each year. | | | | |
