About:
Dig Yellow is a volleyball match that began when our alumni Volleyball player Olivia Brodt was diagnosed with Childhood Cancer. At that time the goal was to raise money in support of Olivia and her family to help them best cope with the challenges that were in front of them.
When Olivia passed away we continued our Dig Yellow event and donated 100% of the proceeds to charity.
This years recipient was “Tommy’s Place” in Centerville. Tommy’s Place is a vacation home that’s sole purpose is to provide a vacation experience for children with cancer.
The players help spread the word and decorate the gym.
Th events multiple purpose goal has been achieved!
1. Keep Olivia’s legacy alive
2. Raise awareness of Childhood cancer
3. Raise money for local groups specifically involved with childhood cancer.
