Featuring both women’s basketball and hockey, the events are designed to engage fans across different sports while rallying around a cause that impacts families throughout the Ozarks. Pink Out nights encourage attendees to wear pink, participate in fundraising efforts, and learn more about how local support organizations are making a difference beyond the arena.

Throughout the events, fans will have opportunities to connect directly with the mission of the Breast Cancer Foundation of the Ozarks (BCFO). Information tables, awareness moments during games, and shared stories help spotlight how BCFO supports patients in practical, life-sustaining ways. Rather than focusing solely on awareness, these events emphasize action, reminding the community that small contributions can help cover gas for treatments, keep utilities on, or prevent housing insecurity during an already overwhelming time.
What makes these Pink Out nights especially meaningful is their local impact. Funds raised stay in the Ozarks, directly assisting neighbors, coworkers, and friends who are undergoing breast cancer treatment. By partnering with Drury athletics, BCFO is able to reach audiences who may not otherwise encounter the foundation, expanding awareness while strengthening the safety net for patients across the region.
At their core, these events reflect the best version of sports culture: competition paired with compassion. Pink Out nights at Drury aren’t just games on a schedule, they’re moments where the community comes together, shows visible support, and proves that sports can be a powerful platform for hope, help, and healing.
