Alight Remains Rooted in Response

In conflict zones, drought, and famine zones where many withdraw, Alight chooses to stay. Our teams run clinics in Sudan, provide mental health support in Ukraine, and deliver food and water in Somalia and Uganda. Together with displaced communities, we co-create emergency responses that restore dignity and hope.

From Survival to Thriving

Today, 319 million people face acute hunger across 67 countries, with children under five at greatest risk. Alight’s stabilization centers, mobile health teams, and emergency food programs save lives in fragile contexts. With your support, survival becomes the first step toward thriving futures.

Humanizing Humanitarian Response

At Alight, we see more than crisis. We see people with courage, resilience, and the power to imagine brighter futures. Even in emergencies, displaced families guide the design of services that meet their needs with dignity. By standing alongside them, you ensure response that is not only lifesaving, but life-giving.
