Technology for Nonprofits
Our technology partner, LAN Infotech, has informed us of the many offers Microsoft is making to nonprofits. Microsoft has committed to delivering relevant, affordable and innovative cloud solutions to help nonprofits tackle the world’s biggest challenges. Go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/nonprofits to learn more about their technology solutions and capacity building offers.
They are allowing nonprofits to get Microsoft 365 Business free. This package includes Office 365, Windows 10, and Enterprise Mobility + Security, which empowers everyone to work together securely. Go to https://nonprofit.microsoft.com/register to register your nonprofit and learn more about nonprofit offers from Microsoft.
In the past, cybersecurity and privacy were often low on the list of priorities for nonprofits. However, as cyberthreats have increased so have the risks of ignoring those threats. Breaches, compromised data, and cyberattacks are now a concern for everyone. Microsoft is offering a free eBook detailing six steps to building a holistic security strategy for your nonprofit with Microsoft 365. (Use this after your organization gets their free copies of Microsoft 365.)
Available now, the Microsoft Digital Skills Center for Nonprofits, in partnership with TechSoup, is a one-stop learning path platform full of product training and skill-building content to help nonprofits successfully use technology. New content and courses are being added regularly. These courses combine great skill-building content from subject matter experts and a deep understanding of how nonprofits use technology. The training resources are curated based on use cases from real nonprofits.
