While grief affects everyone, research shows that men are less likely than women to seek support for themselves or encourage their children to receive help after a death loss. This is how we begin to change that.
For the first inaugural Super Men event in October of 2026, the goal was set for 100 men to join the founding group of Super Men with a $100 charitable gift to the Mourning Hope Grief Center. The amazing Mourning Hope community blew right by that goal, with a final total of 154 Super Men! Their gifts ensure men, children, and families can receive grief support, counseling, and resources at no cost, and help break the stigma that keeps too many men from seeking support.
As a thank you, participating Super Men were invited to a party to celebrate their collective generosity, enjoying an evening of food, drinks, and connection with fellow superheroes as they explored the spectacular Museum of American Speed. The event was generously hosted by Mourning Hope supporters Steve Russell, Brian Boesche, and Stan Maly, ensuring that every contribution from the Super Men directly supports programs and services for grieving children and families in Lincoln and beyond.
Thank you to all of our 2026 Super Men!
