[2x MATCH: ACTIVE [Donate]]( [Your impact doubled for birds—but only until midnight!]( There are just hours left in our Match Challenge! For birds at the "tipping point" like the Rufous Hummingbird, who have lost 50% or more of their populations in the past 50 years and are on track to lose another half or more in the coming decades, there’s no time to waste. [We’re still looking for a few more bird lovers to start an annual donation while, thanks to a group of generous donors, your first gift will be matched, up to $10,000, for the birds we love. An annual gift is a convenient way to provide for birds' future, as it renews automatically each year. This special offer expires at midnight tonight, so please hurry!]( [Your support helps birds [GIVE NOW]]( We want you to know that where there’s action, there’s hope—and we’re dedicated to finding the best path forward to help more birds survive at this critical time. With your support, we’re pushing for the large-scale change it will take to ease habitat loss and help improve the chances of survival for hundreds of bird species. Take our Habitat Hero program in Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah as an example. It provides people, businesses, and cities with the resources to create bird-friendly habitats, like gardens in their own communities. These habitats support species like Rufous Hummingbirds during their migration. The birds we love need protection [Bird Icon.]( Two-thirds of Rufous Hummingbirds have been lost in the past 50 years. [Bird Icon.]( This species could see its current summer range shrink by 70 percent and its winter range by half. [Bird Icon.]( 3 billion birds have vanished in less than a human lifetime. But there is more work to be done on behalf of birds, so we’re asking for your help today. [Please be one of the supporters we’re counting on to start an annual recurring donation before midnight tonight—and when you do, your first gift will be matched, up to $10,000, for birds and their habitats.]( Sincerely, National Audubon Society [Donate]( Photo: Claire Beiser/Audubon Photography Awards.
