On the 30th August 2017, 29 year old Samantha Lewis lost her life to anaphylaxis. Samantha loved life and lived it to the full. She is sorely missed by her partner Shaun, beautiful baby Tyler, family and friends.

Samantha, from Melbourne, had peanut and tree nut allergy and died whilst on a work trip in Sydney.

Shaun’s brother has now organised a fundraiser to bring family, friends and supporters together to help continue to raise awareness of food allergy, its management and emergency treatment.

The “Samantha Cup” aims to raise awareness for food allergies and the risk of anaphylaxis. There is currently no cure for food allergies. Help us improve the lives of those with food allergy and increase safety by raising much needed funds and awareness for the trusted charity, Allergy and Anaphylaxis Australia.
