📣 The New AAPI San Francisco Tradition returns! 📣

Last year was the kind of day you don’t forget.

‘By the community, for the community’ isn’t a tagline. It’s what this day actually looks like. It’s what this community actually feels like.

1,000+ runners moving through the same streets. 120+ volunteers spread across 3.5 miles of San Francisco, handing out water, Asian candy from around the world, and high-fives.

Japantown to Chinatown. 20+ historic AAPI landmarks. A route that connects where we came from to where we’re going.

Strangers who showed up alone and left as part of energized community.

We said the 5th annual would be something special. We meant it.

First-ever commemorative medal. Some new landmarks and surprises.

Walk, run, or just show up. This is for everyone.

🎬 RE:CONNECT l The Making of a Movement.

Our Race. Our Movement. Our Documentary.

🫱🏻‍🫲🏼Our Heritage 5K x CAAM

The Our Heritage 5K was born out of our movement’s earliest days as a way to activate the community beyond rallies. The name says it: our heritage. Honoring where we came from while building what comes next.

This year’s theme is RE:CONNECT. A reply to our history. A conversation with our future.

For the first time, we’re partnering with to document the 5K and produce a film about this movement.

Every runner is part of the story. The route is the set. The finish line is the red carpet.

Join us!

We’re excited to welcome as a special guest at Asian Women Are Strong 2026: Beyond the Spotlight.

Beyond the Spotlight is a lens, not a label. It is about expanding how impact is recognized for Asian women at work, at home, and in community, especially the kind of leadership and responsibility that often goes unseen.

Arden brings a grounded perspective on choosing your path with intention, holding your standards, and building work you believe in, both on and off screen.

Join us for a conversation that will set the tone for the day.

Most people miss it.

They miss the relentless coordination, the emotional labor, and the steady hand it takes to keep everything moving.

Much of the work Asian women do is foundational, yet it often happens without a formal title or a public platform. It isn’t just “help”, it is the essential labor that creates the impact we see every day.

At the 4th Annual Asian Women Are Strong Summit, we are moving Beyond the Spotlight. We are here to name and validate the consequential work done in plain sight in our families, workplaces, and communities.

On March 7th, we’re putting that expertise front and center. Join us to recognize the leadership and the impact that often goes unseen by the world but is felt by everyone.

We see you. We see the work.

Join us.

This event was more than just a food festival, we celebrated community, culture, and connection.

Huge thanks to our incredible vendors, sponsors, and every supporter who made this possible. You are the heart of this event, and we can’t wait for next year!
