Join Dr. Simon Khagi, Medical Director of Neuro-Oncology at Hoag Family Cancer Institute and the Hoag’s Heroes and Healers team for the 2nd Annual Head for the Cure 5K - Orange County on March 21 in raising funds, awareness, and hope for the Orange County brain tumor community. Funds raised will make a direct impact, supporting brain tumor research at Hoag.

This cause is close to our hearts because we’ve witnessed firsthand the profound physical and cognitive impacts brain tumors have not only on those diagnosed, but also on their families and support networks.

Whether you’re a runner, a walker, or a supporter from afar, your involvement makes a meaningful difference for families facing a devastating diagnosis.

Let’s move together to ignite hope and build a future without brain cancer.

Vanessa Bryant, wife of late Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant, has made a generous gift to Hoag establishing the Kobe & Vanessa Bryant Family Court at Hoag Hospital Newport Beach.

During an intimate ceremony on Feb. 24, Hoag leaders and Bryant family members unveiled the new signage on the building. Located at the hospital’s Sue & Bill Gross Women’s Pavilion, the Kobe & Vanessa Bryant Family Court serves as a prominent departure space where Hoag patients, particularly those with newborns, prepare to leave the hospital and return home.

“Hoag is a special place,” Bryant said. “I have wonderful memories of the care and support I received from the amazing doctors and nurses. I want this gift to help more people experience that level of care when they need it.”
