Your generous support protects birds, other wildlife and their habitats across our urban and rural landscapes.
From the Oregon Coast and its spectacular habitat to one greenest cities in the nation to the varied terrain of the high desert, our state’s wildlife and wild places are wide ranging and need our constant environmental stewardship.
Portland Audubon’s Leadership Giving Circle plays a crucial role in inspiring and connecting people to the natural world. Your gifts are used here on the ground in Oregon to fight climate change, advocate for Oregon’s wildlife and wild places, protect birds and their habitat, and connect people to nature through education, wildlife rehabilitation, and restoration.
Workplace giving provides employees with the opportunity to give back to a cause that resonates with them, benefiting not only Portland Audubon, but the company as well. More.
