Alight

Alight, formerly American Refugee Committee, is an international nonprofit, nonsectarian organization that has provided humanitarian assistance and training to millions of beneficiaries over the last 40 years. Alight works with refugee communities in 7 countries around the world, helping people regain control of their lives. The people Alight serves have lost everything to events completely beyond their control. Alight provides shelter, clean water and sanitation, health care, skills training, microcredit education, protection and whatever support we can to let people begin again.
