Let’s Talk About “Least Available”
If you are familiar with Saving Moses, you’ve probably heard the phrase “most urgent, least available.” This single phrase is at the heart of our mission and often determines when or where we expand programs.

“I Wait For The Sunset”

Help is Coming, Syria.

Christmas extravagance overwhelms, but their cries echo in our hearts. We turn our eyes to your besieged hometown and we gently whisper, “We see you. We […]
