About Dink for Pink
Join Us Next Year!
Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us at the USOP National Pickleball Center for an unforgettable day of play, purpose, and pink!
Together, we raised awareness and funds in support of Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center Naples, honoring survivors, families, and loved ones touched by cancer.
The energy, unity, and compassion shown by our community made this event one to remember — from the morning Celebration Walk around the lake to the lively pickleball tournament and the heartfelt tributes along the way.
Dink for Pink will return next year—even bigger and better! Stay tuned for dates, registration details, and ways to get involved.
Until then:
- Follow us on social media for updates and photos
- Stay connected for volunteer, sponsorship, and vendor opportunities
- Continue spreading awareness and hope throughout the year
- Email us (or text) if you're interested in being on our email list
We can’t wait to see you again for the next Dink for Pink—where every serve, smile, and step makes a difference.

2025 champion of hope
Terri Campbell - 2025 Champion of Hope
Terri Campbell, our 2025 Dink for Pink Champion of Hope, is the true embodiment of resilience and courage. A two-time breast cancer survivor and most recently ocular melanoma, Terri continues to inspire everyone around her with her strength and unwavering hope. Her journey is a reminder that the fight against cancer is not just about survival, but about living with determination and grace.
This year’s honor is made even more special through the support of ContentClix, founded by Terri’s daughter, Nannette Staropoli, who created Dink for Pink as both a tribute to her mother and a platform to raise awareness and support for those touched by cancer.
