About:
Every year for the past (at least 15 years), the Massapequa girls volleyball team has participated in a Dig Pink Game and Rally. Normally we schedule one home game to be our Dig Pink Game where we decorate the gym in Pink and pack the stands. Local community members and legislators come to the game and often speak between the JV and Varsity game. We also have tons of raffle baskets from the local community members and businesses to raise money to donate to the Side Out Foundation. Last year we raised $15,000 and were the top 3 teams in the Nation to raise that much money. This year with volleyball not starting until March – we are not able to run our game and rally.
I would still like to donate to this organization as it is a great cause so I am having my team create donate pages through the side out foundation for us to raise money. Even though we are not able to all be together – we can still fight together!
I put it out to all incoming JV and Varsity players to fundraise, since we haven’t been able to make teams or even practice I sent it out to everyone. The campain started the first week of October.
