Jeepney Projects Worldwide

Jeepney Projects Worldwide Art for Conservation - Jeepney Projects Worldwide (JPW) partners with regional conservation groups to support and help threatened and endangered birds.

We celebrate these birds and raise global awareness of their conservation needs through exhibitions featuring original work by visual artist and JPW co-founder, David Tomb. Additionally, we raise targeted conservation funds for these birds through sales of fine art prints. Each project advocates for a particular species and the habitat that it represents. JPW hopes to inspire people to learn more

about these unique and irreplaceable creatures, and find solutions to prevent their demise. Birding enthusiast, David Tomb is at the forefront of this endeavor. Our current projects include supporting conservation groups working on behalf of the Philippine Eagle, Mexico’s Tufted Jay and Horned Guan, and Ghana’s amazing Picathartes. The jeepney is a fitting mascot for us. We admire how a utilitarian vehicle has been transformed into a symbol of artful resilience. Co-Founders:

Happy Heavenly Hatchday Pag-asa 🥹

Today, let us all celebrate the beautiful life and cherished memories of Pag-asa, who would have been 32 years old. Although he may no longer be with us physically, his spirit lives on in our hearts and minds. He continues to give us hope, that we should carry on and strive for his kind, our national bird, and the Philippine wildlife they represent.

What a beauty!

In addition to being one of the largest eagles in the world, the Philippine eagle is visually striking with its massive black bill, fringe-like leg feathers, and long brown head feathers. Found on just four islands in the Philippines, this remarkable and critically endangered bird is what researchers call an umbrella species - a species whose protection leads to the protection of many other species that share the same habitat.

This December, we’re counting down to the anniversary of the Endangered Species Act on December 28th. Each day, we’ll feature a different species protected by this act so you can learn more about their stories.
