Double Your Impact When You Help Fund a Bird City Coordinator Position

Imagine a city where birds thrive alongside humans. A place where urban development harmonizes with nature. This is the vision of the Bird City Network—a collaboration between Environment for the Americas and the American Bird Conservancy. 

We need your support to bring this vision to life. 

Why We Need You

Becoming a Bird City means more than just preserving natural spaces—it means creating vibrant, eco-conscious communities. Our coordinators motivate cities and communities across the Americas to:

• Preserve Natural Spaces: Ensure that urban development includes green spaces vital for birds.
• Mitigate Dangers: Reduce threats to birds by addressing hazards like glass buildings and harmful lighting.
• Protect Migratory Paths: Safeguard the routes that migrating birds depend on.
• Celebrate World Migratory Bird Day: Engage communities in celebrating and learning about these incredible creatures.
• Educate the Public: Spread awareness through on-the-ground public education about the importance of bird conservation.
