Zoe suffered an acute asthma attack and was rushed to hospital where she was immediately placed on life-support. Four days later, the Kennedy family was devastated to learn that Zoe would not recover.
In partnership with Asthma Australia, Figurehead established the Zoe Kennedy Foundation. Through grants and PhD Scholarships, the foundation helps fund progressive research into asthma prevention, management and eradication, with a specific focus on the increased risk for teenagers—and in doing so, honours a young life cut short.
Today, through Figurehead staff’s fundraising initiatives including Site BBQs, Annual Golf Fundraisers, Asthma Awareness Week Campaigns in schools, and a Tribute Football Netball round in Zoe’s hometown of Geelong, over $410,000 has been raised to further improve the lives of young people with Asthma.
