Donate in multiples of $10 for Claire's 10 years at Birds Connect Seattle
Birdathon is my favorite work day of every year! As much as I enjoy cataloging new arrivals to my backyard feeders (pictured above), there is nothing better than hitting the birding trail in service to the mission of Birds Connect Seattle. This year will mark my 10th year with the organization and therefore my 10th Birdathon, so I'm asking my friends, family, and professional network to join in this annual event with gifts in $10 increments. Ten multiples of $10 would be especially meaningful, don't you think?
Your donations support education, science, conservation, and community engagement programs to advocate and organize for cities where people and birds thrive. Thank you for your generosity!
