National Audubon Society

About

At the heart of the National Audubon Society is a commitment to the conservation of birds and the habitats they need to thrive. Founded in 1905, we stand as one of the oldest and most effective bird conservation organizations in the Western Hemisphere. For over a century, we have been on a mission to protect birds and the places they need, today and tomorrow. Our approach encompasses science, advocacy, education, and on-the-ground conservation, ensuring a holistic strategy that addresses the multifaceted challenges facing our avian friends. Our work spans the entire Americas, reflecting the migratory journeys of countless bird species that traverse national borders. This hemispheric approach underscores the interconnectedness of ecosystems and communities, prompting us to act collectively for a shared future. Our dedicated team of over 650 staff members, alongside countless volunteers, collaborates with local chapters and partner organizations across ten countries to maximize our impact. Together, we are an expansive and diverse community united by a love for birds, dedicating ourselves to inspiring conservation action and fostering a sense of stewardship within the public.
