[2X MATCH] We’re not waiting for Earth Day—and you shouldn’t either

Protect birds this Earth Day and make double the difference.

Rufous Hummingbird. Protect birds this Earth Day and make double the difference Tomorrow is Earth Day, a day to honor and strengthen our resolve to preserve the precious planet we all share. But with one-third of U.S. birds including the beloved Rufous Hummingbird in need of urgent conservation action, we’re not waiting to act—and you shouldn’t either. When you start your monthly donation today, your first gift could be matched, up to $400,000, thanks to a group of generous donors. Soar to birds’ defense this Earth Day and make 2X the impact. If climate change continues unchecked, 70% of the Rufous Hummingbird’s current breeding range could be lost. These beloved birds are at their tipping point—but together, we’ve shown that there is hope in action, and we have practical, effective solutions. With more than 120 years of conservation expertise under our wing, we're addressing both the impacts of climate change and its causes by working to increase the resilience of birds and important habitats, while also fighting for cleaner energy and reduced carbon emissions. But just how many birds we’re able to protect depends on the steadfast support from caring bird lovers like you. So please, make your monthly donation before midnight tomorrow while your first gift could be matched, up to $400,000, to make twice the impact for birds and the places they need.
