About:
The North Salem HS Boys and Girls Basketball programs played 4 games in late January & early February of 2023 to raise money for the Side-Out Foundation’s Breast Cancer Research fundraiser. We called our event “Dunk Pink.” The Boys JV & Varsity games on Jan. 30 vs. Westlake and on Feb. 2 vs. Croton-Harmon kicked off the fundraisers, and were followed by Varsity Girls games on Feb. 3 vs. Putnam Valley and on Feb. 7 vs. Dobbs Ferry. The players from each team helped to decorate our gym with pink streamers and posters, we bought pink nets for the baskets and used them throughout the fundraiser, and the boys played with a ball tha thad pink lettering and a pink cancer ribbon on it. We raised $5000 both at the door on game days with voluntary contributions and through the Side-Out Foundation’s online donation page.
