The climate crisis is threatening birds’ very survival. Don’t let them go extinct.

Your first annual gift will be matched for the birds we love.

Allen's Hummingbird.

We can give birds a safer future—but we must act now.

Dear KAREN, The Allen's Hummingbird is facing a worrying decline. Populations have dropped a staggering 88% since 1970, with a potential loss of 90% of their breeding range by the end of the century unless we take immediate climate action. And sadly, they are not alone in this crisis. Two-thirds of North American bird species are at increasing risk of extinction and need your support urgently. Please be one of the bird lovers we need to start an annual donation right away. Thanks to a group of generous donors, your first gift will be matched, up to $5,000. Your annual gift will renew automatically each year, providing uninterrupted resources our teams can depend on in their work year after year.   We have a century of experience in bird protection, focusing on local conservation efforts guided by expertise. Our research has shown the positive impact of stewardship and advocacy for vulnerable birds like the Allen's Hummingbird and provided a blueprint for protecting other vulnerable species.

Birds are in crisis:

More than half of U.S. bird species are in decline, with plummeting populations across nearly all habitats.

Most North American birds are under threat, with 389 species at increasing risk of going extinct.

Three billion birds have vanished in less than a single human lifetime.

We urge you to act now to address this extinction emergency. We still need a few more new annual donors to rise to this challenge. Please don't wait: Start your annual recurring donation now, and together, we'll secure a safer future for birds like the Allen's Hummingbird. Sincerely, National Audubon Society
