Gwynedd Valley, Pa. – (9/4/2024) – This year, thousands of volleyball athletes from around the country will participate in The Side-Out Foundation's Dig Pink® program. Middle school, high school, college, club, and adult teams will advocate for those living with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in their communities while raising funds for the Side-Out Foundation.
 
Donations from Dig Pink events support metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients' participation in Side-Out's Precision Medicine Analysis Program in addition to supporting the foundation's own ongoing breast cancer research.
 
The Gwynedd Mercy University women's team will host a Dig Pink® match on Wednesday, October 16 to support the Side-Out Foundation. Recent alumni will be in attendance and collection buckets will be on-hand for those looking to donate.
