This is your last chance to make a 2X matched gift ahead of Giving Tuesday

We can bring birds back—but only with your support. This is your last chance to make a 2X matched gift ahead of Giving Tuesday.

Rufous Hummingbird.

2X Match: Monthly Donors Needed [Donate Today]

Birds are on the brink. You can help bring them back.

KAREN, the Rufous Hummingbird may be known for its copper coloring and pugnacious personality. But they could soon lose 71% of their breeding range—and over 50% of their winter range—due to changing climate conditions. With 3 billion birds lost since 1970 and one-third of U.S. birds in need of conservation action, we must work harder than ever to protect those that remain.

Ahead of Giving Tuesday, please give birds like the Rufous Hummingbird the protection they deserve—protection that doesn’t waver—with a monthly gift today. Right now, your first gift could go 2X as far, thanks to a group of generous donors.

For 120 years, our rigorous science has identified which birds are threatened, which habitats are most in need of protection, and which birds will most benefit from our efforts. Those findings guide our work on their behalf: restoring and protecting habitats, leading nationwide community science efforts, and advocating for bird-friendly policies. With your support, we’re speaking out for stronger protections so that all birds can be safe and fight for the climate action birds and people urgently need.

But we must do more while there’s still time to bring birds back—and for that, we need you. Please start your monthly gift ahead of Giving Tuesday while your first gift could be matched, up to $50,000.

Sincerely,

National Audubon Society
