Bird-a-thon 2010
May 14th - 15th
Thank you for supporting the conservation efforts of Mass Audubon. Our feathered friends depend on you to provide funding to conserve the habitat they need for their nests and to help educate their human neighbors as well. We appreciate your generosity and support.
The Mass Audubon Bird-a-thon, to be held May 14-15, 2010, from 6 p.m. to 6 p.m., is a 24-hour birding event during which birders count bird species while raising money at the same time. Please donate, or create your own fundraising page, to help Mass Audubon raise $175,000.00 during 2010 - that works out to about $540 for each of the 324 bird species that make Massachusetts their home.

Mass Audubon works to protect the nature of Massachusetts for people and wildlife. Together with more than 100,000 members, we care for 33,000 acres of conservation land, provide educational programs for 200,000 children and adults annually, and advocate for sound environmental policies at local, state, and federal levels. Mass Audubon's mission and actions have expanded since our beginning in 1896 when our founders set out to stop the slaughter of birds for use on women's fashions. Today we are the largest conservation organization in New England. Our statewide network of 45 wildlife sanctuaries welcomes visitors of all ages and serves as the base for our conservation, education, and advocacy work.
