About technology grants
Technology grants help nonprofits acquire and use the hardware, software, and digital tools they need to operate effectively — from computers and cloud services to databases and cybersecurity. Much of this support comes as discounted or donated products and services rather than cash, lowering the cost of essential technology. Some funders also make cash grants for ambitious tech-driven projects, particularly those using data or AI for social impact.
A long list is the starting point, not the shortlist. Our grant prospecting guide shows how to narrow technology grants for nonprofits down to the funders most likely to say yes, using their giving records.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much money do technology grants for nonprofits award?
Of the 344 technology grants for nonprofits Grantable lists as of October 4, 2026, 163 publish an award amount. The median listed award is $50K, and the middle half fall between $10K and $275K. The largest is $10M. Amounts are each grant's stated maximum, so a typical award can be smaller.
Which funders offer the most technology grants for nonprofits?
By number of active listings, the leading funders are Clemson University Research Foundation (7), National Institutes of Health (7), Internet Society Foundation (6), Tennessee Technology Development Corp (6), and California Public Utilities Commission (5). In all, 236 funders have at least one active grant in this category.
When are technology grants for nonprofits due?
Of 344 grants listed, 12 accept applications on a rolling basis, 24 have a published upcoming deadline, 78 run on a stated cycle (such as annual or quarterly) without a published date, and 230 don't publish a deadline, so check the funder's site. Among dated deadlines, 50% fall in October–December.
What do technology grants cover?
Technology grants and donation programs typically cover software licenses, hardware such as computers and networking equipment, cloud and productivity tools, databases and CRM systems, websites, and cybersecurity. Many are delivered as discounted or donated products rather than cash, while a smaller set of cash grants funds larger technology projects or innovation initiatives.
Who offers technology grants and discounts to nonprofits?
TechSoup is a central hub that makes hundreds of discounted and donated technology products and services available to qualified nonprofits, foundations, and libraries, and it handles eligibility verification for programs like Google for Nonprofits. Google.org makes grants to nonprofits using technology — including AI — to address societal challenges, and many technology companies run their own nonprofit donation and discount programs.
How do nonprofits qualify for technology grants?
Most technology donation and grant programs require valid charitable status — in the U.S., 501(c)(3) status verified through an intermediary such as TechSoup — and registration with the specific program. Product-donation programs may limit quantities or set usage rules, while cash grants for technology projects involve a competitive application focused on the project's impact and feasibility.
