Bringing Crime Scenes to Life: 3D Printing for Forensic Dioramas

Help me give my students supplies for our Forensic Science classroom to study toxicology and create crime scene dioramas.

My Project

Our forensic science students are taking their learning to the next level by creating detailed crime scene dioramas—just like real police departments use for training and case analysis. To make this hands-on experience possible, we need 3D printer filament to produce essential models and structures that bring these crime scenes to life.

By donating, you’ll help students develop critical investigative skills, improve spatial reasoning, and engage in real-world forensic applications.

Your contribution directly enhances their ability to visualize and analyze crime scenes, preparing them for careers in forensic science and criminal justice.

Every spool of filament makes a difference! Help us equip the next generation of forensic experts by donating today.

We also need some chemical supplies for our toxicology unit activities.

Thank you for supporting forensic science education!
