Creating Chances is a youth development social enterprise and registered charity, dedicated to empowering young people through sport-based life skills and leadership programs. We work with over 100 NSW Department of Education schools and numerous community partners, reaching more than 10,000 young people each year, many from First Nations, refugee, migrant, and low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Our mission is to create a more inclusive and cohesive society by providing opportunities for young people to become empowered and to reach their potential. Our key offering is the Creating Chances Youth Development Pathway, a structured, evidence-based pathway supporting young people from Year 6 to Year 12. Using sport as a vehicle, the pathway is designed to build resilient, confident, capable and future-ready young people who are active citizens in their communities and feel empowered as leaders.
In addition to this structured pathway, we run tailored community programs such as Football United and Rugby Tackle Life, specifically supporting underrepresented groups including young women, newly arrived migrants, and culturally and linguistically diverse communities

Our approach is grounded in strong local partnerships with Migrant Resource Centres, schools, Intensive English Centres, and Multicultural and Local Health Districts, ensuring programs meet local needs. Young people in these communities often face challenges such as disengagement from education, lack of access to employment, gender inequality, and low physical activity levels.

Through safe, structured, and inclusive environments, our programs promote wellbeing, a sense of belonging, and clear pathways to education, employment, and leadership, equipping young people with the tools necessary to thrive.

DeadlyScience is an Indigenous-led not-for-profit organisation founded in 2018 by Corey Tutt OAM, a proud Kamilaroi man and STEM advocate. The organisation was born from a simple yet powerful goal: to ensure Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students — Australia’s First Scientists — have access to quality science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) resources, no matter where they live.

Starting with book donations and STEM kits, DeadlyScience has grown to support over 800 schools and community organisations across Australia, particularly in remote and regional areas. The organisation promotes culturally relevant science education, combining Western scientific knowledge with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledge systems.

DeadlyScience is committed to:

• Increasing engagement and achievement in STEM for First Nations students.
• Providing hands-on learning resources, including telescopes, 3D printers, and coding tools.
• Supporting teachers with culturally responsive curriculum materials.
• Creating pathways for Indigenous young people to thrive in STEM careers.
• The word “deadly” in Aboriginal English means “excellent” or “awesome”—a fitting name for an organisation inspiring the next generation of Deadly Scientists.

Right now, vital rainforest ecosystems are being lost to deforestation, development, and degradation—but we have a chance to turn the tide. The Rainforest Conservation Foundation is working to purchase and restore 100 hectares of deforested land—an area roughly the size of 185 football fields—bringing native trees, wildlife, and biodiversity back to life. You can help make this happen.

For every $15,000 donated, we can secure and begin restoring one hectare of rainforest. That land will be permanently protected, reforested with native species, and carefully managed to become a thriving, resilient ecosystem once again. This isn’t just land—it’s habitat for endangered animals, it’s carbon storage for a warming planet, and it’s hope for a healthier future.

Imagine standing on land that was once barren but is now teeming with life because you chose to make a difference. Every hectare we restore is a powerful act of healing, not just for the rainforest, but for all of us who depend on it—for clean air, a stable climate, and the natural beauty that connects us to the Earth.

Whether you can contribute part of a hectare or fund an entire one, your donation directly brings the rainforest back to life. This is tangible impact—measurable, lasting, and deeply needed.

Please donate today. Let’s reclaim 100 hectares of lost rainforest and restore it to the vibrant, living ecosystem it was always meant to be.
