Warriors of Hope - Irene's 5K

Make Your Miles Matter Even More with Peer-to-Peer Fundraising!

When you register for Warriors of Hope, you’ll have the opportunity to become a fundraising champion by creating your own personal or team fundraising page through RunSignUp.

Peer-to-peer fundraising means you're not just participating — you're inviting your friends, family, and coworkers to support a cause that matters to you. Every dollar you raise goes directly to Hope for Stomach Cancer, helping to fund life-saving research, support programs, and raise awareness for early detection and prevention.

Whether you raise $50 or $500, you’re helping provide hope to families affected by stomach cancer — and honoring Irene’s legacy in a powerful way.
