Zendesk Foundation invites applications for Tech for Good program

Zendesk has seen firsthand how technology can play a role in shaping a better future for all and is committed to helping more nonprofits achieve their mission.

To that end, the Zendesk Foundation invites applications for its Tech for Good program. The foundation will award $500,000 and free software to global nonprofit organizations through the program.

The Zendesk Foundation supports organizations that:

• Foster community: Enable connections that offer support and allow people to thrive.
• Promote resilience in a time of crisis: Safeguard against disaster and reduce human suffering; and,
• Create career pathways into tech: Close the economic opportunity gap and reduce unemployment.

Grants of between $10,000 and $50,000 will be awarded. Interested applicants should demonstrate how Zendesk’s products and financial support will help them serve more people and create more impact among vulnerable or disadvantaged populations.

Applicants must be U.S. organizations classified as 501(c)(3) public charities and foreign organizations operating for charitable purposes.

For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the Zendesk website.

Deadline: September 12, 2022
