On the other Icon: Pandora Gilboa and Ada Dig for a Cure raises $2,602
ADA ICON.COM__Letter to the Ada Icon editor
Ada’s volleyball team held our annual Dig for a Cure event earlier this month on Monday, October 6 with Pandora Gilboa. Together, both teams raised a grand total of $2,602.
This year the money was divided in half to benefit a family member or friend from both teams. Half was donated to a Pandora Gilboa varsity team member’s mom who is battling breast cancer. The other half is being donated to Not By Choice Outreach in honor of Evanne Dunlap, a graduate from Ada in 2008, who has also been battling breast cancer.
A breakdown of our total amount raised includes $998 on raffle baskets, $391 at our bake sale, $90 on our serving game, $423 in donations during “Storm the Fans” and $700 on t-shirt sales. This grand total would not have been possible without the generous donations that we received from not only both teams and fans, but also our community.
