About Us

Soaring Phoenix is a 501(C)(3) Non-Profit Organization based in Houston, Texas, that was proudly formed in September of 2008 by the dedicated Alex Tran. Our vibrant team consists of enthusiastic members ranging in ages from 7 to 32 years old, who reside in various parts of the Greater Houston area, including Cypress, Spring, Katy, Richmond, and Pearland. As an organization that is entirely independent and not affiliated with any religious entities, we ensure that 100% of our financial assets are directed towards supporting our team funds, as well as funding meaningful mission trips to Vietnam, where we actively assist orphans and uplift those who are less fortunate in the community.

Con Rồng Cháu Tiên

Many people have asked us why we have decided to adopt a different team name in Vietnamese rather than simply translating Soaring Phoenix into Vietnamese. The reason lies in our deep-rooted pride in being Vietnamese Americans, which we hold very dear to our hearts. We believe that upholding and honoring our culture, traditions, and history is essential for the benefit of future generations within our families and community. Therefore, we selected the significant historical narrative of Con Rồng Cháu Tiên, as it embodies a powerful story that represents the Vietnamese people and conveys their enduring values. Thus, within our vibrant Vietnamese community, we are proudly known as Đoàn Lân Hội Từ Thiện Con Rồng Cháu Tiên.

 

OUR MISSION

Soaring Phoenix commits to raising awareness and generating funds for impoverished people around the world through the traditional art of lion and dragon dancing.
