LA VERNE, Calif. — The University of La Verne softball team in partnership with the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference and the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) will host a StrikeOut Cancer event during this Saturday's doubleheader against Chapman.
Fans will be invited to play softball bingo during the game to help raise money for cancer research. All proceeds from the snack bar will also be donated towards cancer research.
About StrikeOut Cancer
The StrikeOut Cancer initiative is a program through the NFCA to help raise funds and awareness to fight cancer. The program leverages the personal experiences, community leadership, and professional excellence of fastpitch softball coaches nationwide to help increase cancer education and promote healthy living through awareness efforts and fundraising activities.
Since starting the StrikeOut Cancer initiative more than ten years ago, the NFCA has raised thousands of dollars to support the fight against cancer. These monetary donations allow cancer organizations to continue their lifesaving efforts to prevent cancer, save lives, and diminish suffering from the disease through research, education, advocacy, and service.
The Leopards' doubleheader begins Saturday at noon and will be broadcast by LVTV.
