About:
The Dig Pink fundraiser is held throughout the month of October. All funds raised from each event are donated to the Sideout Foundation, an organization that Bishop Feehan volleyball has partnered with for years.
We have a number of events throughout the month of October. We put on a Dig Pink night where an admission of $5 is charged for the varsity match, a raffle for a basket, and QR codes around the gym for parents/visitors to donate. To date, we have raised about $2,500 from volleyball family donations, and about $800 from our Dig Pink night on Oct. 11. During this night, we also take a moment for each player to recognize someone in their life impacted by breast cancer they are playing in honor/in memory of. We also host a Dig Pink student tournament, where students from the high school form teams of 10 to compete in a double-elimination tournament on a Saturday in October. A $5 donation is asked of all who play. Last year- this event, plus a bake sale, brought in $1,800. We had 18 teams compete in the tournament.
