Child Saving Institute (CSI) (childsaving.org), a non-profit organization dedicated to providing services to under-resourced children, youth and families, will proudly commemorate its 133rd anniversary on April 4. Alongside this milestone, CSI continues to make strides with the Campaign for Hope, a capital initiative aimed at expanding and enhancing its facilities and programs.
Over the past 133 years, CSI has continuously adapted its programs to meet the ever-changing needs of children and families in the Omaha community. The ongoing Campaign for Hope seeks to raise funds to support CSI’s growth and development.
Key goals of the campaign include:
- Expansion of CSI’s Emergency Shelter to provide safe and nurturing short-term placement for additional youth in crisis
- Improved and additional trauma-informed spaced for CSI’s Mental Health Services, with a goal of expanding to 16 mental health practitioners
- Investments in technology and infrastructure to improve service and enhance client outcomes
