This Spring, Make a Difference for Wild Birds

2008 was a challenging year for New York City, and perhaps for your family in particular. Tough times bring tough choices, especially when it comes to charitable giving, but here at New York City Audubon, we know how much you care about our environment and the birds that depend on it.

This Spring, while you’re asking, “What can I afford to give?” we hope that you will also ask, “How can we afford to give up our efforts to make New York a safe and welcoming place for birds?”

In a city where…

 * Around 100,000 birds die from building collisions each year

 * Less than seven percent of land is left as natural areas

 * There are no other bird conservation organizations with both a local focus and a full-time science staff

… we cannot afford to stop advocating on behalf of wild birds and their habitat, and engaging New Yorkers in our mission. And we cannot afford to carry on our important work without your help.

The Annual Appeal is a crucial source of funding for NYC Audubon’s most important programs, like Project Safe Flight, Harbor Herons, and the Natural Areas Initiative. It also sustains our essential operations and services. We hope you will show your support for the wild birds and natural areas of New York City by making a special gift of $25 or more to our Annual Appeal today.

You may donate online, or contact our office to make a contribution over the phone or by mail.

Thank you!
