2024 In The Pink Tennis and Pickleball Charity Event
Play With a Purpose
Thank you for joining us!
Wow, Charlottesville!
You blew us away this year with your incredible support of the fight against breast cancer in our community! We set a new fundraising record this year, with nearly $50,000 in cash and in-kind support raised from players and local businesses. A record-setting 285 people turned out to join the fun at eight area clubs. To all our players--thank you for showing up, dressing up, and telling your friends. Your spirit and energy are the heart and soul of this event, and you make it bigger, better, and more fun every year.
A special shoutout to Jana Early and our friends at Glenmore for their incredible golf tournament, special sponsorships and raffle baskets sales that featured loads of local merch that brought in over $9,000.
This event is a true community effort, and, in addition to our players, we have so many people and partners to thank. Our wonderful Grand Slam Sponsor Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates led the charge, along with Charlottesville Radio Group, 29 News, Michael Kaminski, and generous support in memory of Elisabeth Greenbaum by her family.
Our partner clubs and tennis pros once again shared their space, time and expertise: acac, Boars Head, Farmington, Forest Lakes, Glenmore, Greencroft, Keswick, and Lake Monticello.
And of course, none of this would happen without the extraordinary dedication of The Women's Committee of Martha Jefferson Hospital, especially ITP Co-Chair Melissa Hoover. You are heroes for women's health in our community.
We are truly blessed to live in a community that cares so much about helping women prevent, treat, and survive breast cancer. 100% of your support for the Martha Jefferson Hospital Foundation stays local to ensure that no woman walks the hard road of cancer alone. Because of you, women can access breast health screenings, wigs and scarves, therapeutic programs, retreats, and resources entirely free of charge. At a time when many women worry about the cost of treatment, you are providing life-saving care, comradery, and peace of mind. Thank you!
