The Islander girls volleyball team is hosting a Dig Pink Fundraiser at their Oct. 18 game against University City High School.
The event will raise funds and bring awareness to metastatic breast cancer through live performances provided by Coronado School of the Arts, the middle school choir and the high school dance team. A Buona Forchetta food truck will also be available as a dinner option in the parking lot.
All proceeds will benefit the Side-Out Foundation, a charity that raises awareness and funds for metastatic breast cancer.
“This event is important to CHS volleyball because it is a way to support a disease that has affected so many people’s lives who are close to us,” said head coach Adeile Ahmu. “As a woman who has breast cancer survivors in my family, this is a small way to recognize all the women (and men) who have been diagnosed, fought and who continue to fight this battle.”
Donations can be made at giving.side-out.org/campaigns/20535. The event runs from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and admission is granted by donation.
