Microsoft
Microsoft is a lead product donor on TechSoup, as well as an advocate and funder for the expansion of the TechSoup Global platform.Software donations are a key part of the company’s global citizenship commitment to bring the benefits of relevant, accessible and affordable technology to those who don’t currently have it.Microsoft believes NGOs deserve access to the best technology tools to do their important work in their communities, and donates its software in support of their goals.
Since the launch of the Worldwide Software Donations Program, Microsoft has donated more than $29 million worth of software to nearly 3,000 organizations in eleven countries (not including its donations in the US and Canada). They make more than 50 products available on the TechSoup platform.
In addition to its software donations, Microsoft has invested nearly $3 million to seed the growth of TechSoup Global and its network of Partner NGOs around the world.
