'Connecting communities to their neighbourhood and environment using large scale public art.'Earth Foundation is a non-profit organization founded in 2008 by artist Todd Polich dedicated to the conservation of the environment, spotlighting the ecosystems found in North American’s Coastal Rainforests. The organization encourages environment awareness through life-size public arts projects depicting endangered species in their natural habitats.
The main objective of Earth Foundation is to inform, educate, and inspire actions of conservation, focusing on climate change, critical rainforest preservation, and preventable species/habitat loss due to human activity. We intend to work with elementary and secondary schools, community organizations, corporations, and government to raise ecological awareness, and inspire communities to make positive change to the world around them. Earth Foundation uses art as means to bridge the emotional and information gap between individuals and communities and the conservation of our environment. Using simple, powerful, positive images, the art aspires to encourage people to take action from a place of inspiration.
