Nearly 400 birds are vulnerable to extinction due to climate change, and for species like the Rose-breasted Grosbeak, whose populations have declined by 30% over the past 50 years, time is of the essence.

The Birds We Love Are in Trouble. You Can Help. ([link removed])

We love watching and admiring birds like the Rose-breasted Grosbeak, a migratory species that spends part of their lives alongside us. But with their populations dropping, these birds could eventually disappear altogether. In less than 50 years, there’s been a 29% decline among this beautiful songbird. We can’t let them go silent forever.

That's why we’re matching all new gifts made by December 31st, 2x up to $500,000. Will you be one of 428 donors we need today to keep us on track to hit our year-end goal? Start a gift that renews automatically each year and gives birds protection they can depend on. ([link removed])

And it’s not just the Rose-breasted Grosbeak that is suffering. More than 3 billion birds have vanished in the past 50 years. At this moment, birds’ vital habitats are being lost. Climate change is forcing them to relocate to find new homes that can sustain them. And if the trends continue, the birds we love may not survive.

Rose-breasted Grosbeak populations have declined by 30% in the past 50 years.

 

We have what it takes to reverse these disturbing trends and create a brighter future for birds. To revitalize the Rose-breasted Grosbeak and other forest-dwelling birds, our Healthy Forest initiative has prioritized protection and management. And we’re using our 100 plus years of expertise to create and maintain bird-friendly communities. We’re restoring and protecting intact forests, promoting plants for birds, and advocating for bird-friendly buildings.

In order to keep our momentum going we’re matching all new gifts through the end of the year—up to $500,000! But, we still need 428 donors TODAY to keep us on track. Will you start an annual donation and help protect our community birds, like the Rose-breasted Grosbeak? ([link removed])

Sincerely,
