When the clock strikes midnight, Giving Tuesday will be over—and so will your powerful opportunity to help unlock $200,000 for vulnerable birds. For species like the Allen’s Hummingbird, which lost 80% of its population from 1968 to 2019 according to the North American Breeding Bird Survey, the months and years ahead are critical. We must soar to their defense this Giving Tuesday.

Only hours left: Amplify your impact for birds before midnight

Wildfires. Spring heat waves. Urbanization. At this very moment, the Allen’s Hummingbird is facing multiple threats from the climate crisis—and if we don’t act now, they could lead to this beloved bird’s extinction. With Giving Tuesday ending in just a few hours, can we count on you to give birds the unwavering protection they need and deserve?

Be one of 25 supporters we’re depending on to join us with a monthly donation before midnight tonight. Thanks to a generous group of donors, you’ll help unlock $200,000 more for birds and their habitats.

Half of all bird species are in decline.

Through our proven combination of committed advocacy, empowering education, and expert on-the-ground conservation—together with the support of bird lovers like you—we have the power to build a safer future for birds. Right now, we’re defending the laws that protect birds at risk, advocating for strong legislation like the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act, keeping important landscapes and waters resilient, and fighting for the bold climate action birds need now.

Preventing a bird extinction crisis

We’ve lost 3 billion birds in the span of one lifetime.

According to the North American Breeding Bird Survey, Allen’s Hummingbird populations declined by 80% between 1968 and 2019.

Allen’s Hummingbirds could lose 64% of their range in a 3 degree warming scenario.

It comes down to this: Where we work—and when you help—birds are better off. But we must do more while there’s still time. So this Giving Tuesday, please join us with a monthly gift while it will help unlock $200,000 more for birds and their habitats. Hurry! This special offer ends at midnight tonight.

Sincerely,
