$33,299Raised of $35,000
Count birds for conservation with San Diego Bird Alliance!
Birdathon is like a walkathon, except instead of counting miles, you count birds! Teams and individuals pick a day between April 11 - May 11 to get outside in San Diego County and try to identify as many species as possible within 24 hours, while raising funds along the way. You don’t have to be a pro birder to participate in Birdathon. If you love to explore the beauty of nature, meet new friends, and make a positive impact in your local community, you are in the right place!
Sign up, go birding solo or with a team, and collect donations or pledges from friends and family to help us reach our goal. All funds raised support San Diego Bird Alliance's conservation, education, and advocacy programs that benefit endangered birds and habitats.
San Diego Bird Alliance is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization; our EIN is 95-6100273
