Did you know not-for-profit organisations are so valued that not only do they get discounts with Microsoft, they also get freebies? Yes, you read that right! We are thrilled to let you know that Microsoft provides FREE licenses for not-for-profit organisations. These licenses are around the three Microsoft Clouds: Azure, Dynamics 365, and Microsoft 365.
