Heidi Cortez's Company Details
Saving Moses is a global humanitarian organization saving babies (5 & under) every day by meeting the most urgent and intense survival needs where help is least available. -Malnutrition Feeding: Since 2010, Saving Moses has been supplying 6 malnutrition clinics in the most devastated areas of Angola with life-saving therapeutic milk. An average of 500 babies each month arrive at these clinics suffering from Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM), the most intense version of undernutrition. We have over an 86% survival rate of babies who complete our therapeutic milk program. We also serve in the Democratic Republic of Congo.-NightCare: Babies are a natural result of the sex industry, a lucrative billion-dollar industry, trapping thousands of men & women across the globe. Babies are a natural result of this work who often get exposed to abuse & exploitation before they can even walk. We operate five NightCare centers in Cambodia, two in Bangladesh and one in India. These centers provide loving shelter for these precious babies by providing a nutritious meal, a bath, clean clothes, playtime, a lesson, and a safe place to sleep.-BirthAid: For years, Afghanistan has had the highest infant mortality rate in the world. It is especially high in rural areas, where close to 40% of babies do not survive their first year. This is due to unsafe birthing practices and preventable diseases. Saving Moses provides the solution by funding midwives, pediatricians, community-based education, and care to three rural clinics in Afghanistan. We also work in Syria, providing obstetricians, pediatricians, midwives, nurses and neonatal care to pregnant mothers and babies.Saving Moses is accredited by ECFA and has received Guidestar Gold status.
