About Us

Science for Everyone is a registered non-profit dedicated to advancing science literacy, understanding, and accessibility for everyone. Our goal is to advance our audience’s science literacy skills to be able to critically evaluate, disseminate, and make decisions based on scientific information in their daily lives.

We are a team of volunteers who work together to create products which cater to the audience’s various learning styles. We also conduct research to better understand our landscape, and seek continuous opportunities to expand our outreach.
