Workspace for Nonprofits AI & Productivity Program

The Workspace for Nonprofits AI & Productivity Program allows eligible organizations to receive personalized, hands-on support from Google Product Specialists at no cost. Through this program, your team can schedule 1:1 video chat sessions to get expert guidance on everything from technical migration to training staff on the latest AI tools.

   

Whether your team is just getting started or looking to unlock advanced collaboration features, our specialist team provides structured, comprehensive training plans tailored to your specific needs.

Step 1: Request a Google for Nonprofits account and activate Workspace for Nonprofits

Before you can participate in the program, your organization must have a Google for Nonprofits account and an active Google Workspace for Nonprofits account.

• Not yet on Google for Nonprofits? Review our eligibility guidelines. Once you have confirmed your organization's eligibility, go to Google for Nonprofits and click Get started.
• Not yet on Workspace for Nonprofits? Once your organization is verified and approved, you can log in to your account to activate Google Workspace for Nonprofits. From there, you’ll get an invite for onboarding sessions.
• What is included? Through Google for Nonprofits, eligible organizations can receive Workspace for Nonprofits for up to 2,000 users, with the Gemini app and NotebookLM as a core service for $0/month. 

Important tip on logging in: Google for Nonprofits and Google Workspace are two separate accounts and often have different sets of administrators. Your Google Workspace admin email uses your custom domain (e.g. [e-mail]), not an @gmail.com account. If you cannot log into your Workspace Admin Console at admin.google.com, check with the person in your organization who handles IT to find out who set it up.

 Step 2: Complete the pre-survey to schedule your first session

Once you’ve successfully activated Workspace for Nonprofits in your Google for Nonprofits account, your next step is to fill out the interest form to schedule your first consultation.

Get Started

This form acts as a brief pre-survey for our specialist team. It helps our specialists understand exactly where your organization is currently with Workspace, what your current technical setup looks like, and what goals you hope to achieve during the program. You'll receive an outreach email from [e-mail] with next steps.

 Step 3: Prepare for your session

Get ready to Meet: Learn what requirements you need to use Google Meet in order to communicate with your dedicated Product Specialist. Set realistic goals: Outline specific objectives you want to accomplish during your onboarding session (e.g. migrating email data or learning how to use Gemini). Include the right people: Ensure that the individuals responsible for your organization's IT, as well as team members who will be using the tools daily, are available to attend the sessions. Be prepared: Come ready to discuss your current technical setup and any specific challenges your team faces with collaboration.

 Step 4: Launch your personalized onboarding plan

Over the course of your two-week onboarding partnership, you can schedule up to six 1:1 video chat sessions with a Google Product Specialist.

Depending on your organization's goals, your personalized training and workshops can cover a variety of topics, including:

Technical migration support: Account set up Data migration from other platforms User creation Admin reporting Training staff on a new system: Gmail Google Drive Google Sites Google Calendar Maximizing no-cost Google for Nonprofits AI offerings: Gemini app NotebookLM
