Welcome to the Partners for Social Impact Community!
Welcome to the Partners for Social Impact Community! Growth opportunities abound in the Nonprofit Sector. Microsoft is investing in this sector and here is why you should too. Microsoft is committed to doubling the number of nonprofits we reach over the next five years (to 600K by 2027), but we need partners to help us hit that goal. In 2017 Microsoft invested in the Nonprofit Sector through the creation of the Microsoft Technology for Social Impact organization to scale our reach and impact in the nonprofit sector. Why is Microsoft engaged in this work? We recognized two things. First, nonprofit is one of the largest industries in the world and represents a massive opportunity to drive meaningful digital transformation that impacts not just these organizations, but the downstream beneficiaries they serve, whether that be a child, a rescue animal, or a rainforest. Second, nonprofits need the same technology solutions and services of a commercial industry and rely on Microsoft and its partner ecosystem to support them in their technology adoption.
