The latest CSS Imperial/McCook News
In this episode, we travel to Auburn, Nebraska, to sit down with Dr. John Crotty, a longtime board member of Catholic Social Services of Southern Nebraska. With more than 20 years of involvement, John shares why his commitment to CSS has remained strong—and how he has witnessed lives changed through acts of compassion, care, and faith. Through personal insight, this conversation highlights the real impact of generosity and invites listeners to be part of that mission, especially during the Nebraska Catholic Day of Giving. Make your donation now at csshope.org/NCDG and it will be matched dollar for dollar!
One of my favorite days of the year is just around the corner—Give Hastings Day. It is a day that showcases our community’s generosity as neighbors come together to support local nonprofits and strengthen the place we all call home. Each year, I am amazed at what Hastings can accomplish in just 24 hours.
Catholic Social Services is excited to participate again this year on May 7, with all proceeds benefiting our Open Table Sack Lunch Program.
Open Table provides free sack lunches to an average of 100 people every day. With a “no questions asked” approach, we serve everyone with dignity, compassion, and care.

for the Register
Catholic Social Services of Southern Nebraska (CSS) knows well the meaning of the familiar idiom: “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”
CSS provides a myriad of services and support systems to individuals and families. It operates a food market and meal services for those with food insecurity. CSS provides immigration legal services, refugee resettlement services, St. Gianna Homes for Women, a prison and re-entry apostolate, and a host of other outreaches and ministries. Yet many people, including Catholics, are not aware of or do not understand the comprehensive breadth of the work of Catholic Social Services.
