Dig Pink
Author: Megan Bliele
Townsend, MT – October 11 - This year, thousands of volleyball athletes from around the country will be participating in The Side-Out Foundation’s Dig Pink® program. Middle school, high school college, club, and adult teams will become advocates for those with metastatic breast cancer while raising funds to support breast cancer research that is giving more time to those living with MBC.
Broadwater High School will be hosting a Dig Pink® match on October 11, 2022, to support the Side-Out Foundation and raise funds for a local community member fighting cancer. Admission for the event will be $7 adult/$6 child. Before, during, and after the volleyball match, there will be many special events such as a bake sale, basket raffles and t-shirt sales.
Part of the proceeds from all donations will benefit the Side-Out Foundation, a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Fairfax, VA. Side-Out dedicates the majority of donations to their own metastatic breast cancer research. In addition to research, Side-Out allocates a portion of its funds to high-quality support services for cancer patients and their families, as well as college scholarships for students who participate in the Ambassador Program. The other part of the proceeds will go to a local community member fighting cancer.
