Hi all! (Me again..)
I am studying Grant Writing on the side and saw that Salesforce have a platform for tracking grants on the CRM. Once I am more accustomed to Salesforce I would like to learn more about this as it will help the non-profit org I am volunteering for.
The question I have is this: Is this part of the CRM free for non-profit organizations or is there a reduced rate for them? Who would I speak to, to get this kind of information?
Hi @Laylah Yusuff!
As @Piyusha Pilania mentioned, I'm based in the US (I spent the last 4 years in London and just moved home to the Bay Area recently!)
Salesforce has a program called The Power of Us Program (https://www.salesforce.org/power-of-us) that provides 10 free licenses to nonprofits and schools that qualify (it'll say "discounted" on the website but it's 10 free and then everything on top of 10 is at a discount cost).
On the overview page, click "see eligibility" and you'll be taken to an overview to see if you qualify: https://www.salesforce.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/p10-eligibility-guidelines-English-2023.pdf
Scroll down the UK section, it says:
- As of the 1st of February 2018, the following are the documents required for the noted countries. This list is subject to update from time to time.
- UNITED KINGDOM -- Charity Registration Number from Charity Commission, CIC Registration Number from CIC Regulator, Articles and Memorandum of Association
If you have any questions, please contact the Power of Us Application team, there is an EMEA specific person now processing the apps (the general email is Power of Us Desk <PowerOfUsDesk@salesforce.com> and for EMEA-specific there is PowerOfUsDeskEMEA@salesforce.com, I might recommend you contact both to play it safe!).
Phew sorry that was a lot, but hope that helps!
ps if you haven't already, take a look at our Nonprofit-specific groups here in the Trailblazer Community, there are thousands of other nonprofits in this program so this is a great place to connect, browse and join as you find relevant: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/trailblazer-community/groups?tab=featured&filter=Nonprofit+Cloud
