DonorTec Donation Program for Eligible Not for Profit organisations

Microsoft administration fee increase 

We have received notice from Microsoft that prices on many of its most popular software offerings will be increasing -- some by as much as 70 percent.

Our admin fees, which Microsoft's donation program dictates be roughly 4 percent of retail, will be increasing too, but because we know many of the nonprofits we serve plan to request product donations in-line with our fiscal year end cycle (which runs from July 1 through June 30), we're holding admin fees at the current levels until 1 July 2010.

Microsoft Office 2010 is coming to DonorTec this month. Detailed information on its release will be coming through our Facebook and Twitter pages. See what the latest version of this popular software suite has in store for your organisation.

We've gathered important information and resources that you'll need to help decide if upgrading to Office 2010 is the right move. We take a look at Office 2010's new features, including the new web applications for online document collaboration, what they mean for your organisation, and how to access donations through DonorTec.

If you've got a conference, newsletter, publication or event coming up, let us know so we can make arrangements to be there or supply information to promote DonorTec to those attending.

We believe that as many as 4 out of 5 nonprofits have yet to register with us which means that up to 80 per cent of Australian nonprofits are still paying too much for IT related products and services.

You can help develop nonprofit capacity by allowing us to send you flyers or editorial about the program. We may even be able to attend your event. 

Please contact us at support@donortec.org if you have an event that you would us to attend or want some promotional material sent

Valuable contribution helping Life’s Little Treasures

Life's little treasures

TShusannah Morris, Vice President of LLT says,

“Software is so expensive and very often out of reach for small not-for-profit organisations...Being able to tap into a resource such as this with the software that is available – I would really urge any not-for-profit organisation to look into it. Its connecting people up, it wouldn’t have happened for us without DonorTec."
