Corpus Christi CYO Basketball program recently had a Sock Drive to collect socks for those in need. Over 500 pairs of new socks were donated by the travel teams and young families in our winter clinic, in collaboration with our Religious Education Program. Socks remain one of the most requested and least donated items for those in need. This wonderful donation will be dropped off at the Mary Brenan Inn located in Hempstead.
Thank you again to all those who contributed to this worthy cause.

Kim Turano, the Good Shepherd Girls High School Senior Coach, was very nice and appreciative of the effort of the St Ignatius team to forgo their last home game to come to them to play the game. She bought the girls cupcakes, which showed the spirit of CYO and was a very nice gesture.

It was nice meeting you last week at the CYO dinner reception, it was a wonderful night. On behalf of the entire Pirkl family, we are beyond grateful for the CYO taking the time to honor my Dad.
He truly was dedicated to the CYO program at St Raphael’s, he did his best. He was a loving husband, father , grandfather , and great grandfather to his very large family.
My mom who is 92 years old and married to my Dad close to 70 years was so proud and happy on the way home. Just know you all gave her a gift of a special night honoring her husband.
Again, Thank you so much and please extend our thanks to all the wonderful people at the CYO.
