# The Top 3 Reasons That Charities Join TechSoup

Find the technology your nonprofit needs, hone your skills, and learn from experts.

![TechSoup logo](https://blog.techsoup.org/hubfs/TechSoup_August2017/images/ts-chicklet.png)

TechSoup Staff (UK)

 April 9, 2026

At TechSoup, we equip charities with the technology solutions and skills that they need to carry out their missions more effectively. Whether your organisation needs affordable technology, technical support, or better ways to use tech, there's something for you at TechSoup. Plus, it's totally free to join.

## 1. Affordable Tech for Charities

TechSoup partners with many major tech companies to provide charities with the technology they need to serve their communities. We offer [discounted and donated products](https://www.techsoup.uk/product-catalog) from Microsoft, Adobe, and many other brands. These partnerships make state-of-the-art technology more accessible to charities around the world. It's technology that our members use right now to transform their communities.

> *"Thanks to Adobe and TechSoup, we have access to Adobe's world class products that have allowed us to create stories, images, and publications ... to share our mission and change the story of disability," said Sarah Harriman. She is the executive director of 99 Balloons, a charity that works to change people's perception of disability through training, awareness, and programming. "This simply would not have been possible without the help of TechSoup and Adobe."*

In addition, we add new items to our product catalogue all the time, so there is always something new for your organisation to explore.

[![Explore the Offers](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/2980581/929395e1-2643-40fd-8678-3bf1a6dc675e.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/2980581/929395e1-2643-40fd-8678-3bf1a6dc675e)

## 2. Learn from Charity Technology Experts

TechSoup provides a selection of educational content to help you use technology more effectively.

Keep your skills up-to-date by joining our webinars and events. Learn about new digital tools to improve your communications, fundraising, technology strategy, and more. Our webinars have no cost, with plenty of options each month. [See upcoming events here.](https://events.techsoup.org/)

[TechSoup Courses](https://engage.techsoup.org/courses) has expert-led tech training sessions designed for charities. Courses cover topics such as Grant Writing and Management, Email Marketing, Google Analytics, and more.

[The Microsoft Digital Skills Center](https://page.techsoup.org/digital-skills-center?hsLang=en-gb) is another valuable resource. We collaborated with Microsoft to help you get the most out of the Microsoft products that you use every day. Learn more about essential applications like Excel, get guidance on how to use Microsoft 365, and explore all that AI can do for your work and your organisation.

The [TechSoup Blog](https://blog.techsoup.org/posts/topic/country-uk?hsLang=en-gb) is the place to go for the latest on trends in tech for charities. Visit it to learn about brand-new technology and to get tips on how to get more out of the tools that you use every day.

## 3. TechSoup Is a Charity, Too

Charities trust TechSoup because TechSoup is a charity, just like them. We understand the challenges and the opportunities that you face better than a for-profit service provider would. We aren't in this for money; we are here for you and because of you. We are here to support you as you support others. And we would love to support you as you do great things.
