Matching Gift Challenge- Double Your Impact

Bird Conservancy of the Rockies is excited to launch the 2026 Colorado Gives Day campaign. All gifts made between now and the end of the year will be doubled to help reach our end-of-year goal of $200,000!

A generous supporter will match all gifts up to $100,000.

Plus, any new recurring gift made before and during Colorado Gives Day on Dec. 8th will have up to $100 of the first month matched by Colorado Gives!

These matches mean that if you start giving $100/month through Colorado Gives today, you are effectively giving Bird Conservancy $300 in your first month!

Your Colorado Gives Day donation will help save birds! Make a gift to Bird Conservancy of the Rockies today and join us in creating a future where birds are forever abundant, contributing to healthy landscapes and inspiring human curiosity and love of nature.

Your gift will help:

Protect, restore, and enhance over 100,000 acres of habitat
Bring the wonder of birds to over 35,000 people across the Front Range and beyond
Create and deliver over 400 custom-tailored environmental education programs for people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities
Build a regional network of bird monitoring programs to better understand bird migration, the places they live throughout the entire year, and craft solutions to the threats facing birds and other wildlife

Mission

Bird Conservancy of the Rockies mission is the conservation of birds and their habitats through an integrated approach of science, education, and land stewardship. We envision a future where birds are forever abundant, contributing to healthy landscapes and inspiring human curiosity and love of nature.

Background Statement

Biodiversity is declining faster than at any other time in human history. We have lost nearly 3 billion birds in North America since 1970. That equates to more than 1 in 4 birds lost in less than a generation.

A stark reminder that the natural systems we rely on are in extreme crisis.

Bird Conservancy of the Rockies was launched in 1988 inspired by the need to better understand bird populations in the West and address the causes of population loss.

We are working tirelessly to reverse declines in bird populations by identifying and addressing the factors that contribute to these declines. Our holistic approach to this work includes partnering with people and communities to identify mutually beneficial conservation solutions that scale across time and space, working at the speed of trust.

Bird Conservancy has become a leader in the field of bird monitoring and research, creating comprehensive, award-winning education programs that connect people to the natural world, and instituting a stewardship program focused on the nexus of landowners, agricultural producers, natural resources, and wildlife habitats.
