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 2026. 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 could be matched 2X up to $500,000. Will you be one of the 267 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. Through our nationwide network, we’re delivering hands-on conservation efforts that are locally focused and guided by regional and bird-specific expertise. And with bird lovers like you by our side, we’ve demonstrated the positive impact of stewardship and powerful advocacy, helping create a blueprint for protecting vulnerable birds across the range of habitats where we work. And with your dedicated support, we’ll further our legacy of defending birds in 2026—as we have for more than a century. But we don’t have a moment to lose. Please start your annual donation today and close 2025 by safeguarding the birds you love. Remember, your first gift could 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
