The latest CSS Imperial/McCook News
By Katie Patrick
Thanks be to God, another successful “Walk to End Hunger” event was held Sunday, Aug. 10, at Pius X High School in Lincoln. It was a beautiful 87 degrees that day—one of the coolest yet in the history of this particular summer evening event.
The friendly competition among parishes led by Knights of Columbus Councils and sponsored by Better Life Insurance had its fifth year of raising dollars and food for the Lincoln CSS Food Market.
Our latest Hope in the Good Life newsletter highlights "The Missionary of the Pen" St. Maximlian Kolbe, who has inspired the CSS Marketing & Development Department as one of their cherished patron saints. Plus, we share more about Make a Will Month, our Sustainability survey, the 29th Annual CSS Memorial Golf Classic, and our new publications plan based on YOUR input. Read all about it!

Two organizations dedicated to supporting women and families recently received a major boost, thanks to the explosive generosity of a local fireworks company.
The St. Gianna Program of Catholic Social Services and the Women’s Care Center each received $30,308.75 donations from Vinton Enterprises. The funds represent a percentage of the money raised through sales at 11 firework stands during the 2025 Fourth of July season.
