Mission Environmental Warriors: Saving the Birds During Migration
Help me give my students bird houses and feeders to beautify, so they can auction them off, raising money to save migrating birds from collisions with glass windows.
Our school, (NTA) has a second story bridge that connects one building to another. The walls of the bridge are clear windows. The bridge is along the path for migratory birds, and twice a year dozens, if not hundreds of birds collide with the bridge and die.The Peace Club, is on a mission to stop these preventable deaths. The students have been researching what causes the birds to collide with the glass, the environmental impact of so many birds perishing, and the solutions to this problem. They are committed to raising both awareness about the issue, and money to purchase a film that goes on the outside of the glass, stopping the birds from flying into the windows.
The students want to get bird houses and bird feeders to paint/decorate, and to auction off, as part of a larger fundraising effort to save the migrating birds.
The students are the main driver behind this project. It is through their efforts that they intend to make a meaningful contribution to the betterment of NTA and the community at large. By helping fund this project, you will be empowering the students to be self-sufficient, and capable of independently solving problems. These students are poised to be our leaders of the future.
More than half of students from low‑income households
