Technology Donations for Nonprofits and Libraries

Who We AreTechSoup 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.
