REGISTER FOR THE AMBASSADOR PROGRAM
The Side-Out Foundation is excited to announce the long-awaited return of its Ambassador Program for the 2024-2025 school year. This program empowering high school volleyball players to become advocates for metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients and The Side-Out Foundation's groundbreaking research, allowing Ambassadors to put their own unique stamp on expressing themselves through the power of social media.
The foundation’s roots trace back to the inspiring initiative of a girls volleyball team who organized the first Dig Pink event in honor of their coach’s mother, who was at the time recently diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. The coach, Rick Dunetz, subsequently started the organization which has since thrived on youth involvement. Now, the Ambassador Program aims to cultivate more youth advocates to be the face and voice of Side-Out by offering young athletes the opportunity to raise awareness and support for the foundation's mission while acquiring valuable skills and experiences.
