⏳Just hours left to make 2X the impact for birds

Give birds 2X as much protection in the year to come.

Northern Cardinal.

Your Year-End Gift Now Matched 2X

Dear KAREN, Research has shown that we've lost 3 billion birds in the span of a human lifetime and that 90 species of birds have lost half or more of their populations in the last 50 years alone. Add to that the impacts of extreme weather on the habitats birds depend on and it's clear we're in the midst of a code-red crisis. But we know what it takes to get birds back on track and hit the ground running in 2024. Start the new year with a decision to defend birds like the Northern Cardinal. Please choose a gift that renews automatically each year while your first donation will be matched 2X up to $500,000. Will you be one of the 509 donors needed by midnight?

Thanks to generous bird lovers like you, this year we continued our tradition of advocating for and securing the spaces, clean air, and clean water that birds and people need to live and thrive. Together, we celebrated the groundbreaking of the largest single-ecosystem restoration project in U.S. history, partnered with Cocopah Indian Tribe to secure critical restoration funding for the Colorado River Delta, restored critical marsh habitats across New York and Connecticut for Saltmarsh Sparrow, marked a second record-breaking breeding season for Great Lakes Piping Plovers, and more. And with your support, we'll further our legacy of defending birds in 2024—as we have for more than a century.

Birds Need Your Protection

3 billion birds have vanished in less than one person's lifetime.

A staggering two-thirds of North American bird species face risk of climate extinction.

70+ species of birds have lost half of their populations in the past 50 years.

But we don't have a moment to lose. Please start your annual donation today and close 2023 by safeguarding the birds you love. Remember, your first gift will be matched 2X by a group of generous donors up to $500,000, ensuring birds have 2X as much protection in the year to come. Sincerely, National Audubon Society
