Microsoft Launches Nonprofit Community to Empower Social Change

Microsoft has officially launched its new online platform for Nonprofits: the Microsoft Nonprofit Community, making its debut at the inaugural Global Nonprofit Leaders Summit this week. This platform is designed to help Nonprofits connect, collaborate, and learn from each other, as well as access exclusive resources and opportunities from Microsoft. The Microsoft Nonprofit Community aims to support Nonprofits in their digital transformation journey, by providing them with tools, training, and best practices to leverage technology for social impact.

Guided by core convening principles, its aim is to:

  • Empower Nonprofits to connect, converse, and drive community discussions.
  • Facilitate meaningful conversations between Nonprofits and tech leaders.
  • Ensure inclusivity by welcoming Nonprofits of all sizes, customers and non-customers, from around the globe.
  • Strike a balance by amplifying Nonprofit voices alongside Microsoft’s.

The Global Nonprofit Leaders Summit served as a springboard for these principles, and now, the Nonprofit Community has been officially launched to sustain these ideals beyond physical gatherings, reinforcing Microsoft’s commitment to keeping the dialogue alive.

Held in the US, the Global Nonprofit Leaders Summit was an opportunity for mhance, a leading Microsoft Nonprofit Partner in the UK, to showcase its expertise and commitment to the sector. Alan Moody, CEO at mhance, said: “We were honoured to be one of the only two UK Partners to sponsor this event, as we share Microsoft’s vision of empowering Nonprofits with technology and AI. The Summit was a great platform to connect with other leaders and learn from their experiences and insights. We believe that the Nonprofit Community is a valuable resource that will help Nonprofits achieve more impact and efficiency in their work.”
