About TechSoup Global:

TechSoup Global is working towards the day when every nonprofit and social benefit organization on the planet has the technology resources and knowledge it needs to operate at its full potential.

TechSoup Global, a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit, was founded in 1987 on the belief that technology is a powerful enabler for social change. Since that day, we've assembled a worldwide network of individuals and organizations that share this conviction. This network—one that you likely belong to—includes foundations and corporations, governments and NGOs, social entrepreneurs and volunteers. Together, these unlikely allies have developed sustainable, community-driven technology solutions to meet today's most urgent social challenges.

A guiding principle in our work is that NGOs are agents of change, not beneficiaries of aid. Our efforts are focused on creating sustainable communities, in which all participants are contributors, not on the redistribution of resources from the haves to the have-nots. We believe that all participants have resources that, brought to bear on a problem, can result in real solutions. This currency of contribution underwrites all of our work.

Last year was a time of great expansion and learning for our organization. In late 2008, we made a commitment at the Clinton Global Initiative to branch out to underserved areas of Africa, Asia, Central and Eastern Europe and Latin America. Since then, the TechSoup Global Network has expanded with an office in Warsaw, Poland, and a network of 29 partners serving 32 countries, including Brazil and Japan.

We've also broadened our reach through NetSquared, an ambitious global experiment that empowers individuals at the local level to build and share innovative solutions to social problems. Today, the NetSquared community has tremendous reach, with more than 20,000 members and local events in 71 cities around the world. In 2009, the NetSquared Challenge brought innovators from all over the globe to the Cisco campus in California to award seed funding and resources to projects like FrontlineSMS, The Extraordinaries, and VozMob: Mobile Voices. Partners such as UC Berkeley Human Rights Center and USAID see these challenges as a powerful model for surfacing innovation. We've also expanded the breadth of our programs. In November 2008, the Council on Foundations selected TechSoup Global to design and host an equivalency determination information repository, now known as NGOsource. TSG was selected in part because of its extensive international network and proven ability to offer eligibility verification services. In partnership with the Council, we are currently developing this new web-based service.

And TechSoup.org continues to grow, now reaching more than 375,000 unique visitors every month. The site, which combines product philanthropy with practical educational content and a vibrant community, is undergoing a complete technology overhaul.

TechSoup Global is dedicated to creating and supporting an environment of openness, trust, and fun where people's differences are valued and respected, and where people of diverse backgrounds participate fully in our organization. We believe that the diverse cultures and perspectives of our staff will help us better serve our clients. TechSoup Global is an equal opportunity agency and will not allow discrimination based upon race, color, creed, religion, sex, marital status, domestic partner status, ancestry, national origin, weight, height, physical or mental handicap, pregnancy, medical condition, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, citizenship, veteran status, AIDS/HIV status, age, or socioeconomic background.
