Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Australia were the First Scientists of this land and DeadlyScience is committed to preserving that history.
DeadlyScience aims to provide STEM resources and mentoring to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and remote schools across Australia. To date, it has shipped over 16,000 books, 500+ telescopes and resources and engaged in over 700 hours of virtual lessons.
2021 Pitch
Funds Raised: $100,500
Corey, founder of DeadlyScience pitched at the TFN Hybrid Live Event to expand their tech capability to deliver lessons to remote communities and to put STEM resources into Languages for the first time ever.
The Impact…
The past 12 months have been a huge period of growth for DeadlyScience. The funds raised at TFN Virtual+ has provided over 180 schools and youth organisations supporting over 6,000 Aboriginal and Torres Strait islander kids with STEM resources, books and mentoring opportunities.
One powerful story is Penelope, a young Wirdajuri girl who attended a Deadly Learners program and now she wants to be a scientist. DeadlyScience hopes to continue inspiring young Indigenous kids just like Penelope.
