How to Use TechSoup
Technology Donations for Nonprofits and Libraries
Who We Are
TechSoup is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a clear focus: connecting your nonprofit or public library with
technology products, plus the learning resources you need to make informed decisions about
technology and operate at your full potential.
TechSoup is a part of TechSoup Global, a nonprofit founded in 1987 that provides tech assistance to other
nonprofit organizations in the United States and 80 countries. In the last 12 years, we’ve distributed over 12.4
million tech products to more than 200,000 NGOs, saving the sector more than US$4.2 billion.
What Will You Find at TechSoup.Org?
Your nonprofit, charity, or library is working hard to make a positive impact on its
community, and technology can help extend your reach. But when most of your funding
goes toward accomplishing your mission, there's not always enough left over for your
technology needs. That's where TechSoup comes in. We connect nonprofits, charities,
and libraries to:
•Learning Resources: Free technology planning and learning resources geared
specifically to nonprofits and libraries, and written for all levels of technical expertise.
•Community: Nonprofit news, informational blogs, and free webinars and discussion
where you can ask questions and get advice.
•Donated Technology: Over 450 donated and discounted products and services from
more than 45 donor partners.
