At RecoverED, we’re passionate about helping students return to education as soon as possible following a period of great upheaval.
Welcome from the Founder
I started RecoverED in late 2024 after seeing the devastating impact that disasters can have on education. By providing practical tools and linking students with the generosity of strangers, we fulfil our purpose of ‘Rebuilding Futures, One Kit at a Time’.
Our Kits
Working with schools and local volunteer groups, we provide kits that help students find their feet in the stressful post disaster period. Our kits are tailored for students experiencing two different types of displacement:
KNOWLEDGE NOMADS
Our Knowledge Nomad Kit is designed for students who are fully ‘off-grid’, without regular access to mains power. In addition to basic tools, it includes a solar panel, a power bank and a screen maximiser, to help students stay connected.
SKILL SURFERS
Our Skill Surfer Kit is designed for students who are couch surfing or living in other forms of temporary accommodation. In addition to basic tools, it includes a portable projector to enable students to turn any wall into an engaging learning space.
Make an Impact
We need your help to make a difference. Whether it’s a recycled textbook, a financial contribution, or simply your time, each donation can transform the life of a student.
Our Ethos
At RecoverED, our ethos goes beyond pure learning. We understand the critical role that education can play for students in the aftermath of natural and human-induced disasters. By providing basic tools, helpful resources and a matching service that connects students with the second-hand textbooks that they need, we help them rebuild their confidence and get back on their feet.
Disasters on Education
Disasters can have a devastating effect on education by damaging schools, displacing families and interrupting learning. Events such as bushfires, floods, earthquakes and conflict can leave students without safe learning environments. Disasters also impact students’ mental health and long-term engagement, increasing the risk of early school leaving. Supporting educational recovery is vital to helping young people rebuild their future after crisis.
Our Mission
By reigniting their passion for learning and education, RecoverED can help students get back on their feet following a disaster. We strive to give young people the opportunity and right to have access to quality education wherever they may be.
