As we countdown to National Wildlife Day millions of birds will soon set off on long journeys south. But this fall migration is more perilous than ever—especially for species already in steep decline. It’s a “perfect storm” of challenges: birds are facing mounting threats just as they are most stressed physically, least experienced, and navigating increasingly hazardous landscapes. For endangered birds like the Golden-cheeked Warbler, it's a literal life-or-death situation.

We’re not willing to let the birds we love disappear—and we know you won't, either. Will you start your annual donation now to help protect them, today and tomorrow? For a limited time, your first gift could be matched up to $30,000 for birds and the places they need. ([link removed])

The 2025 State of the Birds report named the Golden-cheeked Warbler as a Tipping Point species, meaning this species has lost 50% or more of its population in the past 50 years and is on track to lose another half or more in the coming decades. If we fail to act, we risk not only the continued collapse of beloved bird species—but also deeper damage to the ecosystems we share. Yet we are not without hope. We can create a safer future for birds and people. Indeed, we already are. Through our nationwide network, we deliver on-the-ground conservation shaped by deep regional expertise. Whether it’s stewarding critical wintering grounds or advancing policy protections, our efforts are rooted in science and strengthened by people who care.

We’re committed to protecting birds and their habitats, today and tomorrow—and we’re relying on steady, dependable support from committed friends like you to make it all possible. So please, start your annual donation while our 2X match is active to safeguard birds and the places they call home. ([link removed])
Sincerely,

National Audubon Society
