Alina's Light was born from love and the determination to turn heartbreak into hope. Created in memory of Alina Sheykhet, whose life was tragically taken by domestic violence in 2017, our organization works tirelessly to spread awareness, foster healing, and bring light to the darkest places.

We believe that "we learn to express our grief not through pain, but through love to Alina." Every program we offer, every resource we provide, and every event we host is designed with this philosophy at its heart. Our free domestic violence awareness programs and resources have touched countless lives, providing education, support, and hope to families throughout Pennsylvania.
