Alight Rwanda (formerly American Refugee Committee ARC)

With over two decades of consistent presence and experience, Alight has been playing a critical role rebuilding lives and responding to the refugee crisis in Rwanda. Today, Alight Rwanda is the one and only agency that works in all six refugee camps in the country, serving mostly Congolese and Burundian refugees, while also supporting displaced communities in three urban areas and three refugee reception and transit centers.

We partner with key stakeholders to provide core services—like the Rwandan Government, agencies of the USA, and the UN—but we also look to partner with like-minded humanitarians, businesspeople, and institutions doing incredible things and embracing new possibilities. The team is channeling Rwanda's abundant energy for change, building on the work we began over twenty years ago and emerging as a leader in innovative approaches.
