The Eagles and Vikings support the goals of the Side-Out Foundation through this Dig Pink event. The non-profit Side-Out Foundation was established in 2004 to raise money and awareness about cancer through the recreational activity of volleyball. It contributes the funds to organizations that serve breast cancer patients, research, medical services or compassionate support. The term side-out refers to a situation in volleyball when one team wins a point while its opponent is serving, thereby regaining serve or control of play. Side-Out hopes to do the same for breast cancer patients, providing them with the support, education and best available treatments to regain control of their lives.
