HOW YOU CAN PLAY A PART IN OUR NEW HOME
KENNEDY COMMUNITY CENTRE
Hawthorn Football Club, the family Club.
The Kennedy Community Centre will be a home for every member of the Hawthorn family and we invite you to consider your family legacy by making a tax deductible donation to our Trees and Park Benches campaign.
The Kennedy Community Centre comprises of the Harris Family Elite Training and Administration Facility, the AFLW and Community Pavilion as well as two ovals in which our Hawthorn teams and the wider community will utilise to train and play.
Set on expansive land, the Kennedy Community Centre will feature walking tracks as well as places in which to rest and watch Hawthorn Football Club and local community teams at work.
We are pleased to offer you the opportunity to etch your, your family’s or the name of a loved one into the landscape of the Kennedy Community centre with a dedicated plaque aligned to a tree or park bench.
Landscaping on site is well underway with over 82 trees already planted and 27 park benches installed. Another 65 trees are scheduled for planting in October 2024 and April 2025.
Donations to this campaign will help to ensure the successful delivery of the Kennedy Community Centre, from state-of-the-art technology and equipment to cutting-edge recovery and education resources.
The Kennedy Community Centre will be built by Hawthorn families, for Hawthorn families.
