Summary
This is a program for nonprofits in that helps them plan for better use of technology—and then actually put parts of that plan into action. It’s designed especially for organizations that have been around for a while (at least three years) and have an annual budget somewhere between about $300,000 and $8 million.
The program has three main parts. First, nonprofits attend a workshop for leaders about technology strategy. Then they work with a consultant to build a multi‑year tech plan, thinking through where tech can best support their mission. Finally, there’s a grant piece for executing parts of that plan.
The grants are sized depending on the nonprofit’s budget. For example, organizations with smaller annual budgets might get up to $25,000, while larger ones up to $50,000.There is also a “Small Organization Technology Grant” for nonprofits with budgets under $300,000, with awards up to $10,000 for one or two tech projects.
Eligible uses of the grant include things like buying new hardware or software, updating or creating websites, developing databases, improving networking, investing in printers/copiers/devices, training staff on technology, strengthening cybersecurity, etc. The funds can’t be used for staff salaries or ongoing operational expenses like paying internet bills or web hosting.
The benefit is that a nonprofit isn’t just getting money, but gets help defining a thoughtful plan so investments are well targeted. It helps ensure technology is not just bought but maintained, aligned with goals, and sustainable over time. If you are leading a nonprofit with stable operations, this might be a strong opportunity.
