The Blue Datto Foundation is a NSW based registered charity that aims to protect the lives of young Australians through innovative road safety education. Blue Datto’s mission is to change the culture of young drivers by altering attitudes and behaviours.
Blue Datto was established by the Vassallo family following the death of 17-year-old Philip Vassallo in a crash in which both drivers were red ‘P’ platers. Phil, ‘the kid in the Blue Datto’, was a much-loved teenager who brought happiness to everyone who knew him.
Blue Datto established its flagship education program, ‘Keeping Safe™’ in 2015. Keeping Safe’s point of difference is it is delivered by undergraduate university students, trained by Blue Datto in facilitation to become our Peer Mentors. Our Peer Mentors are close in age to the school students so create an open and honest dialogue with the school students about what is happening, thereby positively influencing the attitudes of the students, and giving them practical measures to change their behaviours to help students keep themselves and their friends safe.
Blue Datto aims to make Keeping Safe available to every school in NSW. Blue Datto is fortunate to have the support of the NSW Police and NSW Fire and Rescue, and many other community organisations and businesses.
