About:
Needham Girls Volleyball collaborates with Newton South High School, taking turns each year to organize a “Dig Pink” volleyball event.
In the lead-up to the game, players from both teams work together to fundraise for the SideOut Foundation, dedicated to breast cancer research.
During the event, we encourage suggested donations at the entrance, host bake sales, organize contests, and engage in various activities to further support the cause.
This longstanding tradition and charitable endeavor have been ongoing for several years, resulting in a collective contribution of well over $20,000 to the SideOut Foundation.
Additionally, they use this platform during Breast Cancer Awareness Month to raise awareness about the importance of this cause. In the coming year, Newton South will be responsible for hosting the game.
