EVENT RECAP
Strength in Hope 2026: A Day of Purpose, Connection, and Impact
On July 27, 2026, the Kristian Domingo Foundation proudly welcomed our community to the annual Strength in Hope Golf Tournament at the beautiful Richmond Country Club—and it was a day to remember.
With an incredible group of golfers, dedicated sponsors, generous supporters, and passionate volunteers, the tournament became much more than a day on the course. It was a celebration of community, a reflection of Kristian’s legacy, and a powerful step forward in creating meaningful support for adolescents and young adults facing cancer.
Together, we raised critical funds to support youth scholarships and helped advance our mission of bridging the gaps in care for young people navigating cancer. Through the generosity of this community, we are proud to have helped support the first steps toward BC Cancer’s Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Program—an important milestone that will provide greater connection, guidance, and support for young people throughout their cancer journey.
The evening reception was filled with inspiring stories and meaningful moments as we welcomed three incredible speakers who reminded us why this work matters. Our #11 Forever Scholarship recipient, Dami from the Surrey School Board, shared her story and the impact of opportunities that empower young people to pursue their dreams. Julia from Holy Cross High School spoke about the importance of community and the difference that support can make. We were also honoured to hear from Brad Wilkinson from the BC Cancer Foundation, who celebrated the incredible commitment of our supporters and shared that, after years of fundraising and advocacy, BC Cancer has begun the first steps toward bringing an AYA Program to life—made possible because of this community’s belief in the vision.
From the first check-in at registration to the final stories shared during our reception, the day was filled with connection, celebration, and gratitude. The friendly competition on the course, the conversations between supporters, and the heartfelt moments throughout the evening all reflected the true spirit of Strength in Hope.
We gather to honour Kristian’s legacy.
We gather to create meaningful change.
And we gather to ensure that adolescents and young adults facing cancer have the support, connection, and hope they deserve.
Thank you for showing up, standing beside us, and helping turn a vision into reality.

2024 Strength In Hope GolfTournament
Wednesday August 7, 2024
The Strength in Hope Golf Tournament on August 7, 2024, was an incredible day filled with community spirit and purpose. Thank you to our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and participants for making this event a resounding success and a day to remember!
EVENT RECAP
On August 7, 2024, the Kristian Domingo Foundation proudly hosted the annual Strength in Hope Golf Tournament at the beautiful Richmond Country Club. With a sold-out roster of passionate golfers, generous sponsors, and an army of dedicated volunteers, this year’s event was one for the books.
Together, we raised critical funds in support of youth scholarships and donations to the BC Cancer Agency’s AYA Program (PROFYLE) and Canuck Place Children’s Hospice. These organizations continue to do vital work in providing care, research, and hope for young patients and their families—a mission close to our hearts.
The day was filled with sunshine, community spirit, and a shared purpose. From morning registration to the on-course contests, followed by a lively dinner banquet and heartfelt stories, every moment reminded us why we gather: to honour the legacy of Kristian Domingo and keep hope alive for future generations.
