Why They Love
“For us, the event goes deeper than raising funds for metastatic breast cancer research. It represents the Fight of ALL OF our friends and family members against cancer. We battle on the courts to honor their courage, and their struggle to embark on a journey for survival every single day to win against the disease. Raising funds for the Side-Out Foundation unites us all in this fight.”
