Birdathon 2013 Toolkit

During Birdathon we have special trips, walks and events. We bird for pledges, and we pledge donations to individual birders and Birdathon teams.

And if you prefer to make a direct contribution to Eastside Audubon, there's no better time than Birdathon to donate.

High Stakes in 2013

Thanks to a challenge grant from the Melody S. Robidoux Foundation, we have an unprecedented chance to multiply the impact of Birdathon in 2013.

The foundation has pledged to match every Birdathon dollar we raise, up to a total grant of $15,000.

Let's show our appreciation by having our best Birdathon ever! Learn more about the Robidoux Foundation and the grant.
