#GivingTuesday
2019-12-03 08:00 - 17:00 | Honey Hollow Nature Center, 2877 Creamery Road, New Hope, 18938, United States
We’ve lost more than a quarter of North American birds in the last fifty years, with steep declines even in traditionally abundant birds. Hundreds of vulnerable species that remain are on a dangerous path to extinction — and they are running out of time!
But with the energy, passion, and extraordinary dedication of Bucks Audubon supporters like you, we can help save them. That’s why we urge you to take immediate action by making a special year-end contribution today.
Imagine, your gift of $100 could allow us to educate a class of middle school students about the impacts of climate change on our local birds, like the Scarlet Tanager. Or your donation of $500 could support a workshop for municipal officials that will address the needs of climate-threatened species like the Bobolink by encouraging simple actions such as adjusting mowing schedules.
You make all of our important work possible! We are dedicated to educating, engaging and inspiring people to protect birds and our environment. With so many vulnerable birds counting on us to survive, we need you now more than ever. So please, as this challenging year comes to a close, reaffirm your commitment to birds, the environment and Bucks Audubon with a contribution today.
Click here to make a contribution to our #GivingTuesday Annual Appeal. Thank you in advance for your gift!
