On September 29th, 2017, SBT proudly sponsored the 10th annual Pretty in Pink Charity Tennis Tournament. Proceeds from the event were donated to "My Hope Chest," a non-profit organization that offers financial assistance to uninsured and underinsured breast cancer survivors who need reconstructive surgery. SBT chose to be a "Hot Pink" sponsor and donated $500 towards the cause. Alisa Savoretti, survivor and founder of My Hope Chest, shared her story: I am a survivor and forever changed because of it. I truly believe it is God's plan for me to help the numerous survivors nationally, that are still hoping for closure from their breast cancer Nearly 22,000 women a year lose one or both of their breasts and are uninsured and unable to attain immediate reconstruction. Typically a series of three surgeries are needed with costs that range from $25,000- $50,000. With SBT's help, The Pretty in Pink Charity Tournament helped raise money to support the survivors of breast cancer.

Oh, that is inspiring. Well, tennis is ran by sponsors and I am glad you are one of those few people who are willing to lend extra money and do a little charity for the development as well as the improvement of the sport. People like you should become a role model in advancing a well-organized sporting world. I salute your kindness and generosity. I hope you continue doing your wonderful job. Thank you so much for your efforts and may God bless you always!
