Welcome to L.I.T.E.

Lifting Individuals Through Education (L.I.T.E.) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2010 with one unwavering belief:

Education changes lives. Empowered women strengthen families. Opportunity breaks the cycle of poverty.

Our Mission

Eradicate Poverty. Elevate Women. Educate Children.

L.I.T.E. is dedicated to creating opportunities for two communities we believe have limitless potential:

• Liberian market women, by expanding access to education, health resources, and programs that improve economic mobility and quality of life.
• Black high school students in the United States, by providing scholarships that help them pursue higher education and achieve their dreams.

Our Impact

Because of generous supporters like you, L.I.T.E. has:

• Awarded more than $50,000 in scholarships over the past decade.
• Helped students pursue college degrees, many in education and the arts.
• Invested in initiatives that empower women through education, healthcare, and community support.
• Built partnerships that create lasting change for individuals, families, and communities.

Every gift creates opportunity. A scholarship opens the door to college. Access to healthcare can save a life. Education equips families to build a brighter future for generations to come.

Why We Serve

Founded by Liberian American Monigo Saygbay-Hallie, L.I.T.E. was created from a simple but powerful conviction: when we invest in women and young people, entire communities thrive. Our work is rooted in faith, compassion, and the belief that lasting change begins with opportunity.

"Your faith has saved you; go in peace." — Luke 7:50
