Protect the future of Wisconsin’s birds

This Giving Tuesday, your gift helps ensure that birds will continue to thrive in our state.

Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance has spent decades protecting habitat, advancing community science, and ensuring that bird populations across the state continue to thrive. This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to join us in celebrating this milestone by helping us reach our $20,000 fundraising goal in support of our core conservation programs.

Your donation directly supports critical programs like our local Christmas Bird Counts, which provide important data on bird populations used to better protect them and conserve their habitats throughout the country.


Choose a Wisconsin winter Bird species to Represent Your Gift

Select one of the species found during the 2025 Madison-area Christmas Bird Count to “sponsor” with your donation.

Choose a bird that inspires you, or dedicate your gift in honor or memory of someone you love.


The Impact of Your Gift

Your donation today:

  • Restores and protects bird habitat

  • Funds volunteer monitoring programs

  • Supports research and community science

  • Helps wildlife thrive across southern Wisconsin
