Is it worth it? For birds, it is

Your gift has twice the impact for birds and the places they need. [National Audubon Society]( Golden Eagle. [2X the power to protect]( All day long, friends of Audubon have been proving their commitment to birds and their habitats beyond Giving Tuesday. [We’re asking you now to keep this momentum going! Please make your gift right away, when it will go twice as far—matched dollar for dollar, thanks to a generous friend of Audubon.]( There are more than 200 species of birds in the Arctic that will benefit from your support—including the Golden Eagle. Can you imagine if its breeding grounds were mired in an oil spill? If its quest for prey played out in toxic muck? If it had to struggle in flight, its feathers glazed with sludge? With our current administration pushing profit over preservation, such a tragedy is all too likely. And across a landscape already showing the strain of climate change, the damage would be incalculable. That’s why [the gift you make right now]( couldn’t be more important. Together, we’ll step up our efforts to keep Arctic wildlife safe from drilling, and block attempts by the administration to open protected areas for exploitation. We’ll stand up for birds against this insatiable drive to drill, which poses an urgent threat to one of our country’s last wild places. We’ll continue to sound the urgent call for action to counter climate change. To protect birds and the places they need, we’ll do whatever it takes. [Your generosity is powerful—especially today, when your donation will help unlock an important matching gift. Especially right now, when it will fight for birds with twice the might. Please do all you can for birds right away.]( With you and your commitment to stand up for birds, together we will succeed!
