Charity Technology Trust (CTT) has launched CTXchange(tm), which offers Microsoft
and Cisco software and hardware to qualifying UK registered charities and charitable
housing associations at under 10% of the usual retail price.
CTXchange is a partnership
with the US not-for-profit technology capacity building organisation TechSoup.

The UK pilot project enables UK organisations that meet the Donating Partners’ eligibility
criteria to request a wide range of Microsoft and Cisco

 

product donations. The products include operating system software, productivity 
software such as Microsoft Office, publishing software and server software and hardware
products.

 

 

Charities are required to pay a small administrative fee to cover the costs of the
programme. Whilst the administrative fees vary, CTT say that “charities will make
savings of between 92-96% on typical retail prices.”

 

 

CTT’s partnership with TechSoup is part of a global TechSoup Programme through which
corporate donors will offer NGOs and charities in Europe and Africa easy access 
to a broad range of essential technology donations through a central, trusted resource.

 

 

Over the coming months, CTT and TechSoup are working to expand the programme to 
include donations from other leading corporate technology donors.
