The Zendesk Impact Awards are open to registered nonprofit organizations that would like to use Zendesk software to serve their beneficiary communities and help organizations scale their service response. Impact Award applications must be submitted by August 15, 2024.
Organizations and their proposed projects should fit within the Foundation’s core focus areas of fostering community, promoting resilience in times of crisis, and creating career pathways in tech.
Applicants may also provide workforce development programming and display an interest in Zendesk’s Agents of Change Program. Applicants are invited to describe how their organization or project fits into these areas within the application. Learn more about our Tech for Good partnerships on our website and help center.
Organizations should display an ability to adopt new technology in order to receive Zendesk software, meaning your organization previously has or is currently willing to invest time and resources in technology platform solutions to improve services to beneficiary communities.
Most organizations will need to be prepared to self-install and configure their free software using our online help which typically requires a dedicated IT staff member.
