American Goldfinch.

Deadline approaching: Double your impact for birds and the places they need to survive

July shattered records, making it the warmest month that humanity has experienced in 120,000 years. If we fail to address the climate crisis now, it’s a record that will be broken again and again. Soon, it may be too late to preserve our fragile environment for birds and people alike. In the midst of this code-red climate emergency—and as their very survival is threatened—birds like the American Goldfinch are relying on your support now more than ever. So please, start your annual donation right away. An annual gift is a convenient way to provide for birds' future, as it renews automatically each year. Thanks to a group of generous donors, your first gift will be matched, up to $5,000—but only until midnight tomorrow!

Severe heat waves are predicted to only increase in intensity, frequency, and duration in the coming years—and even those birds not directly killed by extreme heat can suffer long-term health damage as a result. That’s why we aren’t waiting to act: With your support, we’re pushing for the large-scale change it will take to ease habitat loss and help reverse the climbing temperatures of the climate crisis. We’ve also set ambitious, measurable goals to play a significant part in changing our planet’s carbon trajectory. Together, these efforts will provide critical habitat for birds, help mitigate the impacts of climate change, and contribute to the health of our planet.

Climate-vulnerable birds need your help today

The American Goldfinch has already lost over a quarter of their populations since 1966

Severe heat waves are predicted to increase in intensity, frequency, and duration in the coming years

With 3 billion birds lost in the last 50 years, we must do all we can to protect the species that remain

We are committed to protecting birds and their habitats, today and tomorrow—and we’re relying on the steady, dependable support from caring friends like you to make it all possible. Join with your fellow bird lovers today: Be one of the caring supporters that we’re relying on to start an annual recurring donation right away. Until midnight tomorrow, your first gift will be matched, up to $5,000, to protect birds and their habitats.

Sincerely,
