There’s no doubt that effective use of technology can deliver significant benefits. This is particularly true for small voluntary organisations where any improvement in efficiency can help take the pressure off already stretched resources. However allocating funds to acquire the latest technology is often an understandably low priority.

The good news is that, through Charity Technology Exchange (CTX), many charities can get access to the latest technology in the form of donations from some of the world’s largest technology companies including Microsoft and Symantec. 

Charities pay a small administrative fee to cover the costs of running the programme and whilst the administrative fees vary, charities will still make savings of between 92-96% on typical retail prices.
