FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

S.U.C.C.E.S.S. 39^th Annual Walk with the Dragon celebration returns to Stanley Park July 14

Vancouver, BC – S.U.C.C.E.S.S. is ready to kick off summer with the launch of our Walk with the Dragon community event in July. We welcome media to join us at Lumbermen’s Arch on Sunday, July 14 at 9:00 a.m. for the Opening Ceremonies and to cover the event.

Walk with the Dragon historically draws several thousand participants and is our largest community-based fundraising event, held in Stanley Park since 1986. Proceeds go directly to support essential S.U.C.C.E.S.S. programs for families, youth, women, and seniors.

“It fills me with pride each year to see our crowds of supporters filling the pathways of Stanley Park,” said S.U.C.C.E.S.S. CEO Queenie Choo. “When I see hundreds of people joining together to raise funds to support our work on behalf of newcomers and vulnerable citizens, I am truly touched by your care and belief in our mission.”

The event is led by the longest Dragon in North America – the 100-foot long S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Dragon is carried by 40 martial artists who lead walkers and teams to participate in the three- or seven-kilometer routes through the park. Following the walk, our family-friendly fairgrounds are open to the public, featuring live music, entertainment, activities, giveaways, prizes, carnival games and photo booths.

“It takes an enormous amount of planning and partnership to organize this historic event year after year since 1986,” said Foundation Board Chair Jason Lam. “We would not be putting on our 39th Walk without the steadfast support of our dedicated donors, sponsors and vendors.”

“We are incredibly grateful to all of the sponsors, donors, participants, staff and volunteers for joining us at Stanley Park and for their support.” said this year’s Walk Co-Chairs, Irene Hsu and Charlie Huang.

We invite you to learn more, to register to walk as an individual or team, and to make a donation by visiting our Walk with the Dragon Event Platform. If you are looking to organize a youth group, please refer to our Walk with the Dragon Youth Participation Kit.

第 39 屆中僑百萬行將於 7 月 14 日重返士丹利公園

卑詩省溫哥華– 中僑基金會已準備好在 7 月份再次推出「中僑百萬行」，為夏季拉開序幕。我們歡迎公眾及媒體於 7 月 14 日，星期日上午9時，在士丹利公園參加開幕式並報道活動。

自 1986 年以來在士丹利公園舉辦，中僑百萬行每年吸引了數千名參與者，是我們最大型的社區籌款活動，為中僑的家庭、青年、婦女和長者等服務籌募經費。

「每年看到士丹利公園的路上擠滿了我們的支持者，我都感到非常自豪。」中僑互助會及中僑基金會行政總裁周潘坤玲說。「當我看到數以百計的人聯合起來，為新移民和弱勢公民籌集資金，支持我們的工作時，我真的被大家的關心和信任所感動。」

百萬行有北美最長的百尺彩龍，由40名武術家帶領步行者和團隊參加穿過公園的三到七公里的路線。步行結束後，我們老幼咸宜的遊樂場向公眾開放，提供現場音樂、娛樂、活動、贈品、獎品、嘉年華遊戲和照相亭。

中僑基金會主席林頌恩表示：「自 1986 年以來，年復一年組織這一歷史性活動需要大量的規劃和合作。如果沒有我們捐助者、贊助商和供應商的堅定支持，我們不可能舉辦第 39 屆中僑百萬行。」

「我們非常感謝所有贊助商、捐助者、參與者、工作人員和志義工來到史丹利公園並給予我們支持。」今年的中僑百萬行共同主席許愛琳和黃汝週表示。

我們邀請您了解更多資訊、註冊以個人或團隊形式參與步行，並造訪我們的中僑百萬行網站進行捐款。如果您想組織青少年團體，請參閱我們的中僑百萬行青少年團體計劃。
