Yes, US colleges and universites do offer financial aid to international students - most with limited aid if any, but some are pretty generous. The aid available is often dependent on your need, but the key is to first gain admission. Many top private universities have a need-blind admissions policy, which covers all students. This is to ensure that the best students, no matter where they come from, can attend their school.
In general, public or state universities do not provide any financial aid to international students. Some schools also offer merit-based scholarships to students with outstanding qualifications to cover all or part of the tuition and fees.
