Secure the future of New York City’s birds and enjoy potential tax benefits—some options even provide income for life. By making a planned gift, you’re ensuring that birds continue to thrive in our City for generations to come. 

Options include:


  • Include NYC Bird Alliance in Your Will or Irrevocable Trust
    Simply designate “New York City Bird Alliance, 71 West 23rd Street, New York, NY 10010” as a beneficiary. Your bequest or designation can be adjusted at any time.
  • Name NYC Bird Alliance as a Beneficiary
    Consider listing NYC Bird Alliance as a residual beneficiary or co-beneficiary of your retirement account, bank account, or life insurance policy—an easy and impactful way to support bird conservation.
  • Already Included Us in Your Estate Plans?
    If you've already included birds in your plans, we’d love to hear from you! If your documents still reference our former name "NYC Audubon," rest assured—our name changed in June 2024, but no updates are required on your part.


    To learn more about including NYC Bird Alliance in your estate planning, reach out to Matthew Coody, Director of Development, at 646.502.9611 or mcoody@nycbirdalliance.org.
