John,

The loss in bird populations over the last half-century is staggering. If our birds are disappearing, we must take action now to avert an extinction crisis for America’s wildlife.

Our birds are counting on you. Will you give $30 or whatever you can spare to support our work to save America’s wildlife like the red-winged blackbird?

Red-winged Blackbird

John,

Blackbirds are a common sight across America, but they’re in trouble: We’ve lost 92 million red-winged blackbirds since 1970, according to shocking new studies. If species well-suited to adaptation are struggling to survive, what does that mean for America's birds and all of our wildlife?

Nature is sounding the alarm, John: We are in the midst of a wildlife crisis.

Will you ignore this emergency and let blackbirds vanish from your backyard? Or will you support our work to save blackbirds and all of America’s wildlife?

Our missing blackbirds are just a fraction of the 3 billion birds missing from our skies since 1970. Instead of beautiful chirps and songs outside our windows, we are met with deafening silence. Please give $30 and help us call attention to the silent struggle of America’s disappearing birds.

From coastal marshes to prairie grasslands to our gardens and city parks, we know our environment is healthy when we have healthy populations of native birds. If our birds are disappearing, we must take action now to avert an extinction crisis for America’s wildlife.

Will you give $30 or whatever you can spare to support our work to save America’s wildlife like the red-winged blackbird?

We’re working on conservation projects across the nation to reverse the decline of America’s wildlife, like the red-winged blackbird. We’re fighting for bipartisan legislation that will transform wildlife conservation, like the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act. We’re raising public awareness about the global wildlife crisis with our education programs. But John, we need the resources to fund all of these incredibly important initiatives.

Will you give a generous gift right now to make sure we have the resources for conservation solutions to save America’s birds and all of our wildlife?

Thank you for being a passionate and supportive friend of wildlife.

   

Sincerely,
