People in the stands are encouraged to wear pink and can make a donation to the Side-Out Foundation at the door. Dig Pink t-shirts can be purchased for $10 at the Physical Education Department. The team's goal is to raise $2,500. Home volleyball games are scheduled for Oct. 4 against L.A. Trade Tech, Oct. 11 versus El Camino and Oct. 18 versus Mt. SAC.
