Aid To Light Charity Organization

Who we are

Our Background

ALCO volunteers with children in the community

Aid To Light Charity Organization is a community-based organization that focuses on education empowerment of the underprivileged and talent development. It was started by a group of volunteers who have the desire to avail education opportunities to the orphans, children from disadvantaged background, disabled and offering vocational education to skill the youth, single mothers and grandmothers.

We carry out community engagement activities through hygiene and health programs.

About Us

Children supported by ALCO

Being aware that ignorance, education inequalities, high rates of unemployment, high rates of school drop outs, gender inequalities, restricted networking opportunities and under development in specialised fields are the major problems perpetuating under development in our communities today especially at the grass root level where families are becoming more vulnerable due to lack of access to education and opportunities for talented individuals to showcase their talents, Aid To Light Charity Organization partners with others of common purpose to improve the living conditions of the underprivileged individuals and groups.

Our Mission Departments
