Protect birds this American Eagle Day and get a Bald Eagle plush as our thanks.

Bald Eagle. KAREN, the Bald Eagle has been the national emblem of the United States since 1782—a living symbol of the freedom, strength, and resilience that has defined America throughout our history. Their story is also one of triumph over adversity. Once pushed to the brink of extinction by DDT, the Bald Eagle became one of the first species protected under the Endangered Species Act—and made a remarkable recovery because of it. Their resurgence since the 1970s stands as a testament to our effective, science-based conservation and policy advocacy. But warming landscapes, intensifying storms, and degraded habitats now pose new risks—reminding us that recovery is never guaranteed without sustained protection. Celebrate American Eagle Day by starting your annual donation that powers our work to protect eagles and other vulnerable birds. Your donation will automatically renew each year giving birds like Bald Eagles the dependable support they need. When you do, we'll send you a Bald Eagle plush as a symbol of our thanks and a reminder of the difference you're making for birds. The stakes couldn't be higher. Climate change threatens to push many of our most beloved species toward extinction—and once they’re gone, it will be too late. That’s why, guided by science and informed by 120 years of experience, we identify which birds and habitats are most in need of protection and which will most benefit from our efforts—findings that drive effective action across our unrivaled network. With your support, we are defending the laws that protect birds, promoting strong new legislation aimed at keeping important habitats resilient, and fighting for the bold action birds need now. And it’s working: Our comprehensive program of research, advocacy, education, and hands-on conservation is a powerful force in preventing future extinctions and helping declining populations like the Bald Eagle recover. But KAREN, we’re more powerful when generous bird lovers like you are in our corner. Please adopt a Bald Eagle today and help protect the birds we love—this season and all year long.
