Earlier this week, Hurricane Sandy caused unprecedented devastation across the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast U.S. Several Audubon Centers—including the Theodore Roosevelt Sanctuary & Audubon Center in Long Island, the Audubon Center in Greenwich, Connecticut, and the John James Audubon Center at Mill Grove in Pennsylvania—suffered damage from flooding and downed trees.

You can help Audubon safeguard critical habitat affected by the storm by making a donation to the National Audubon Society. Funds will be used to help Centers and their state programs recover from the impact of Hurricane Sandy.
