Create a connected not-for-profit with SharePoint

As a not-for-profit, you rely on donations to carry out your missions. Therefore, staying connected with and keeping your stakeholders and volunteers engaged is important. Microsoft SharePoint is a great solution to help your organisation achieve this goal.

SharePoint is a cloud-based collaborative system that doesn’t cost your not-for-profit an additional license because it’s already included in your qualified Microsoft 365 subscription. Utilising it will make sharing and managing content and knowledge effortless for your not-for-profit. This, in turn, will empower teamwork, allow for quick information finding, and facilitate seamless collaboration across your staff, volunteers, and various stakeholders.

What your not-for-profit will love about SharePoint

Implementing SharePoint will bring your staff and volunteers together to accelerate your mission delivery by allowing them to:

Easily access, organise, and share information.

Not-for-profits are regulated in part, so your organisation must document policies and adhere to these rules. SharePoint makes it efficient for your people to store and share documents securely.

Your staff and volunteers can effortlessly update files, utilise version control to track changes, find files easily with built-in enterprise search and metadata, and access important files on the go.

Because it runs on Microsoft 365’s robust security features, you have peace of mind that the files in SharePoint will remain safe and accessible no matter where your users are.


Boost team collaboration and streamline communication.

Your not-for-profit's success is highly dependent on collaboration and teamwork. SharePoint supplements this by connecting your frontline volunteers, support staff, and office-based employees with real-time collaboration.

SharePoint’s co-authoring feature allows your people to access, edit, and comment on documents and lets them quickly see the changes.

A modern Intranet in SharePoint can also boost staff, volunteer, and stakeholder engagement with a central place for company-wide communications.


Manage charity projects easily.

Your not-for-profit manages numerous fundraising and charitable activities to deliver on your mission.

SharePoint helps you to manage and track these activities by allowing you to set up collaborative projects, schedule events, and assign tasks, all from a single platform.

This central repository for project details allows your team members to update tasks, edit files, and engage in discussions seamlessly.


Automate manual processes.

How long your not-for-profit processes take to complete directly impacts how quickly your constituents can benefit from your program and services, which is why streamlining your processes is crucial.

SharePoint can help your not-for-profit deliver better services to your constituents by converting your manual forms into digital, automated ones with built-in notifications, adjustable workflows, and alerting capabilities. With SharePoint, you can quickly and easily replace outdated systems and paper-based processes such as onboarding, volunteer recruitment, data analysis, and employee requests, thereby reducing paper usage and saving time.
