If you need Microsoft products, TechSoup has got you covered. We have a wide range of Microsoft products and service offerings for nonprofits, all available at special savings to 501(c)(3) organizations and libraries. Below you'll find a collection of TechSoup's Microsoft offerings, from cloud solutions to traditional desktop apps to services and support.
The technology world has largely shifted toward cloud-based applications and services in recent years. With that in mind, we recommend that nonprofits opt for Microsoft 365 Business Standard, which gives you access to the downloadable and web-based versions of Office applications and much more.
You can increase collaboration at your organization with Teams and benefit from online storage and document sharing capabilities provided by tools like OneDrive and SharePoint. Cloud-based email with Outlook is a major plus for a remote workforce, and licenses also include work management tools of Microsoft Lists, Planner, and To Do.
The Microsoft 365 Business Premium plans come with upgrade rights to Windows 11 Pro and the latest Office applications, and you receive updates for as long as you subscribe. Microsoft 365 Business Standard includes both cloud and desktop versions of Office applications, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook.

All Microsoft Cloud licenses obtained through TechSoup include Cloud Support Services delivered by TechSoup. It is an exclusive collection of personalized services designed to help you get the most out of the Microsoft Cloud subscriptions.
Looking to explore or adopt AI? Look no further than Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Microsoft 365 Copilot offers the chatbot capabilities that you expect, but it's more than that. It's integrated into the Microsoft 365 apps you use every day to help you get more done in less time. Plus, it comes with business-grade security and privacy: With paid Microsoft 365 Copilot plans, your data stays private. It isn't used to train Microsoft's AI models.
TechSoup offers nonprofit pricing on Microsoft 365 Copilot and Microsoft 365 Copilot Business. Microsoft Copilot Studio, which allows you to create autonomous AI agents that can complete tasks on your behalf, is also available.
To see examples of how nonprofits are already using Copilot, take a look at this case study. We've also worked with Microsoft to put together an e-book (PDF) that gets into more detail.
Although current technology is centered around the cloud, many organizations still need traditional desktop programs. Below are some of the most popular donated and discounted Microsoft products that we offer. (Note that these offers do not include installation service support, though you can get Office installation help for an added fee.)
Microsoft's venerable productivity suite is a popular choice among nonprofits, and it isn't hard to see why. Office Standard includes the core Office apps — Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Publisher, and OneNote — and is a good option for most users. We offer the Mac version of Office — which includes the above apps minus Publisher — as well.
Office Standard and Office for Mac are both available at nonprofit discount rates with or without Software Assurance.
Qualified organizations that require software for shared-access devices can access the donated offer of Office Standard 2024. This includes nonprofits that operate training centers, computer labs, or public-access devices. Public libraries may also request this product for use on their public-access equipment.
Microsoft ended support for Windows 10 in 2025, which means no more bug fixes or security updates for this venerable if outdated version of Windows. So if you're still running Windows 10, you really should upgrade to Windows 11.
Windows 11 Enterprise upgrade licenses are available at a discounted rate of $74 each. Additionally, TechSoup also offers the Windows 11 Pro Full Operating System at a $16 per-license admin fee. This can present a great solution if you have a new computer without an operating system.

Are you a visual thinker? Microsoft Visio Standard is for you. Use it to create diagrams, flowcharts, office layouts, org charts, and more.

In addition to productivity software and desktop operating systems, TechSoup also offers discounted on-premises solutions for servers and enterprise-grade applications.
If you host your own SQL-based database apps and need to expand your capacity, we offer CAL licensing options for Microsoft SQL Server Standard Edition at special nonprofit rates.
SQL Server Standard Edition includes core features such as SQL Server Management Studio, online transaction processing, SQL data tools, and more. If you need more than five licenses, TechSoup also offers different licensing options for your products through our discount program.
Of course, if you need additional Windows Server licenses, we can help you with that, too. We offer various Windows Server options, including Windows Server Standard, Windows Server Essentials, and Windows Server Datacenter. If you need additional licenses or software assurance to cover your current license, you can find them in our discount program.

Windows Remote Desktop Services is a software package that allows your staff to remotely access computers and applications. It's useful if your staff needs to access an app that lives on a computer in the office, but they're currently working from home.
