2X match—but only until midnight!

This is your best chance to ensure birds have what they need in the year to come. [Year End 2X match up to $500,000; Donate Today; Bird Illustration;]( [National Audubon Society]( [Northern Cardinals.]( Northern Cardinals. [Time is almost up; Stopwatch graphic]( [2X Match—But Only Until Midnight!]( Birds have never faced more crises than they do today. The threat of climate extinction looms for two-thirds of all North American bird species. More than half of U.S. bird species are in decline. And every additional danger raises the stakes for the birds we love. [Will you help birds like the Northern Cardinal? Thanks to a generous group of donors, your first annual gift will be matched, up to $500,000—but only until midnight tonight. Don’t wait to give birds the steadfast support they need and deserve.]( [Birds Need You Now. Bird Illustrations]( What we raise by midnight tonight will shape what we can accomplish in the year ahead. And when you give, you can be confident that birds will be better off where we work. This past year, we celebrated the groundbreaking of the largest single-ecosystem restoration project in U.S. history, partnered with Cocopah Indian Tribe to secure critical restoration funding for the Colorado River Delta, restored critical marsh habitats across New York and Connecticut for Saltmarsh Sparrow, marked a second record-breaking breeding season for Great Lakes Piping Plovers, and more. Birds Need Your Protection [Bird Icon.]( 3 billion birds have vanished in less than one person’s lifetime. [Bird Icon.]( A staggering two-thirds of North American bird species face risk of climate extinction. [Bird Icon.]( 70+ species of birds have lost half of their populations in the past 50 years. None of these victories would have been possible without people like you—and we are so grateful for your support. Now, we’re counting on you again to help us step into 2024 prepared to defend birds with our combined might. This is your best chance to ensure birds have what they need in the year to come—and for many years after.
