About:
October is breast cancer awareness month and it’s part of the VB culture to play a Dig Pink/ Power of Pink match to recognize those who have beaten or passed away from breast cancer and to also make people aware that early screening is important. There are players on the girls team, anyway, that breast cancer has affected personally.
The athletes have been selling raffle tickets and T-shirts.. We were selling T-shirt’s and then the girls helped with selling raffle tickets at the boys game and they will reciprocate for the girls.
As well as collecting Concession money, donated money, raffle money from both programs will go to the American Cancer Society.
