Founded August 2005 Laguna Beach CA. Early events included: LAGUNA BEACH, CA – September 2, 2008 – Endangered Planet Foundation, in partnership with the Festival of Arts, Laguna Beach Magazine, and the Laguna Beach Visitors and Conference Bureau, presents One Earth/One Dream, the West Coast’s premier environmental festival, October 2 – 5, 2008 at the Festival of Arts grounds in Laguna Beach. 

Overview
EPF was founded by Charles Michael Murray, a graphic designer and commercial photographer, as the philanthropic arm of the Endangered Planet Gallery, an art space opened in Laguna Beach, California in 2005.[1]
EPF board of directors and advisors have included Earth Day founder John McConnell, Joanne Tawfilis, a Bob Marley Peace Award winner and former United Nations executive, attorney Jonathan R. Ellowitz, and environmental author, Chris Prelitz.[2][3]

Activities

Early fundraising efforts organized by EPF include the public screenings of the documentary films The 11th Hour and One: The Movie.[4] EPF also co-produced a town hall meeting titled “Laguna Beach – Earth Trustee”, featuring a discussion panel headed by John McConnell, and a City of Laguna Beach Proclamation stating Earth Day coincides with the vernal equinox.[5]
Additional activities aimed at raising awareness of environmental and humanitarian issues included supporting Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, promoting/co-funding Sailors Without Borders in its mission to bring aid (such as solar panels and much-needed goods) to the victims of the 2010 Haiti earthquake, and a collaboration connecting arts with the environment known as the “Environmental Mile” which toured internationally as part of the Art Miles Mural Project (AMMP).[6][7][8]
EPF sponsored and organized the One Earth | One Dream EcoFests in 2008 and 2009 with grants made available by entities such as the City of Laguna Beach.[9][10] The events drew thousands of participants to view green exhibitors, award-winning films, eco-themed design and art exhibits. Also featured were symposiums where keynote speakers, including photographer and National Geographic’s Eco-Ambassador, Chris Jordan, former UN Ambassador Anwarul Chowdhury, Wayne Nastri, of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and noted artist, Wyland, discussed environmental concerns, examining topics such as environmental impacts on women’s and children’s health, food and farming practices, eco-business, sustainable living and automotive fossil fuel reduction.[11][12] EPF, One Earth | One Dream provided support and sponsorship of the Laguna Beach Earth Day & Kelp Fest in 2012.[13]

ART MILES MURAL PROJECT —

The AMMP seeks global peace through connecting cultures and and humanity with the power of a paint brush and 5’x12′ canvas – one at a time. Currently creating twelve miles of global artwork. Endangered Planet features the Environmental Mile director and coordinator and is coordinating a North American Tour to complement the Exhibition of the Century. Sponsorship and donations for this local and global exhibit will tie you to the major exhibition to bring peace, harmony and environmental awareness to the world.

As modern and recent history will reveal, a phenomenal project began in 1997 in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the post Balkan conflict, by California resident and husband, Drs. and Fouad and Joanne Tawfilis (PhD, Fine Arts) when she was the Director of the Women of Srebrenica Project, working hands on and in the field with the widows of 10,000 missing men that disappeared in a period of two days. Through her assignment in the City of Tuzla, where the widows were sent following the genocide of the men and boys, Dr. Tawfilis worked on educational, economic development and reconciliation issues.
During the time spent there she sought refuge and relief from the stress and pressure of horrific war stories shared by the widows and having to witness and accompany widows searching for the remains of those haphazardly found through investigations and determination to find their loved ones. This diversion of grief and emotional stress that filled her heart found her working on art projects in an orphanage.
It was here, in March of 1997 that by request of the children, Joanne facilitated the very first mural created by 350 orphans on a bed sheet full of bullet holes.
