Team Dragon Returns for Walk for Hope: Free 2K and 5K Charity Walk in Irvine on Nov. 8
On Sunday, November 8, City of Hope's Walk for Hope charity walk will take place at City of Hope Orange County in Irvine, Orange County, California. The Chinese-American Team Dragon has released a poster announcing its return, calling on community members to join the team and walk alongside community teams including the SABPA OC/LA team, raising funds for City of Hope's cancer research and patient care.
The team's poster features a large group photo of its members in matching blue Team Dragon T-shirts, headlined “TEAM DRAGON IS COMING BACK!” and “JOIN TEAM DRAGON!”, with a save-the-date for November 8, 2026.
Team Dragon was launched by American Lending Center and Sunstone Management together with community partners and is captained by John Shen. Based in Orange County, the team calls on the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community to support cancer research and patient care in person; adults and children are all welcome. The team will provide its official T-shirts, and members are asked to wear comfortable athletic shoes and gather at 9:00 a.m. on the day.
The venue opens at 8:00 a.m. and the walk starts at 9:30 a.m., with 2K and 5K routes. Entry is free, and participants may make voluntary donations. The event is held at City of Hope Orange County, 1000 Fivepoint, Irvine, CA 92618.
Walk for Hope is City of Hope's signature annual charity event, held under the banner “To End Cancer for All.” Since its founding in 1997 it has raised nearly $50 million to accelerate cancer research and innovative treatments. This year the Orange County and Los Angeles walks both fall on November 8, and more than 2,700 walkers have registered for the Orange County event, according to the organizer.
