As the climate crisis intensifies, wildfires are becoming more numerous, more frequent, more widespread, and more intense. Worse yet, these megafires are severely impacting communities, harming people, and imperiling even birds like the California Spotted Owl that usually thrive in habitats after fires, but are now avoiding these large, intensely burned areas.

Birds can’t escape the impacts of extreme weather. But today, you can do twice as much to help. Start your annual donation before midnight tomorrow, and your first gift will be matched, up to $75,000, thanks to a group of generous donors. Your annual sustaining gift will be a convenient way to provide the uninterrupted resources our teams depend on in their work to defend birds year after year.
