Across islands and continents, our shared love of birds brings us together as one powerful community. This Giving Tuesday, turn that love into on-the-ground conservation for the extraordinary birds that call the Caribbean home and the seasonal visitors that journey here each winter.

BirdsCaribbean works shoulder to shoulder with local scientists, NGOs, educators, grassroots leaders, and communities. We provide practical tools, training, and resources to help people safeguard birds and their habitats—from high mountain forests to coastal wetlands and mangroves. In classrooms, city parks, and backyards, we help people discover the birds around them and learn how to care for them.

What your gift can make possible in 2027

Track the birds that connect us. 🪶 We plan to install more Motus tracking stations, tag more Prairie Warblers, as well as tag shorebirds in Puerto Rico for the first time. By tracking Short-billed Dowitchers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, and Prairie Warblers, we hope to learn which wetlands and forests they rely on during migration and winter. That information can help, our partners identify where protection is most needed.
Equip local conservationists to keep working in the field. 🔭 We’ll help more island teams build practical skills in bird monitoring and banding through hands-on training, internships, and small grants. Your gift also supports the equipment and coordination that help teams put those skills to use long after a workshop ends.
Help more people discover the birds around them.🦩 We’ll support local educators and community groups as they bring bird walks, festivals, and hands-on learning to schools and communities through the Caribbean Endemic Bird Festival and World Migratory Bird Day.

Rapid development, pollution, invasive species, and severe storms put pressure on birds and their habitats. These threats contribute to bird population declines and undermine the natural systems that island communities depend on every day. No single island, community or organization can face these pressures alone.

Your gift supports the training, resources, and regional coordination that help local partners monitor threatened birds, engage communities, protect vital habitats, and respond to environmental threats.

To keep our collaborative conservation and education programs strong, we have set a goal to raise $15,000 by Giving Tuesday and $50,000 by year’s end.

Ignited community passion. 🌱 Educators and community partners reached thousands of people with opportunities to learn about the Caribbean's endemic, resident, and migratory birds and how to help protect them.
Monitored bird populations. 🦜 Monitoring teams gathered data on landbirds, waterbirds, and seabirds to help identify which species and habitats need conservation attention.
