We are working toward a time when every nonprofit and NGO on the planet has the technology resources and knowledge they need to operate at their full potential.

The NetSquared conference and showcase social Web innovations that nonprofits can use to dramatically increase their reach and impact.

Working with partners around the globe, we’re actively expanding these resources outside the US. New initiatives at TechSoup include a program (funded by the Gates Foundation) to help public libraries better maintain their public access computers and an expanded Green IT program that aims to build the market for refurbished computers and other environmentally appropriate solutions. Founded in 1987 (as CompuMentor), we currently have more than 150 staff members and an annual budget of about $18 million.
