About

DEADLYSCIENCE LTD is an Australian philanthropic organisation dedicated to providing science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) education and resources to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learners across Australia. It aims to empower and inspire the next generation of First Nations scientists by distributing essential resources like books, science kits, greenhouses, and telescopes to remote schools and communities. The foundation highlights the 65,000+ year history of First Nations science and culture.

Tips for Applicants

As DeadlyScience primarily distributes resources directly rather than offering grants, potential recipient schools or communities should directly contact the organisation to express their needs for STEM resources, aligning their request with DeadlyScience's mission to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learners in remote areas.

Giving Philosophy

DeadlyScience operates primarily as a direct service provider, distributing STEM education resources to identified under-resourced Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learners and remote schools across Australia. Their philosophy is rooted in empowering these learners by providing essential materials and connecting them to the rich history of First Nations science, believing that access to resources changes lives.
