Key Tips
• Register to find out which programmes a charity qualifies for– Reading the eligibility guidelines helps but the only definitive answer comes
through registration• The donors run separate programmes, they don’t all work the same way.
– Read the blurb on each programme you are interested in before you start• Work out what you need from each donor over the next twelve months/two
years before you make a request– The donors are inflexible on the cycle
• Weigh up all the options– A charity that only wants one copy of Office [at the moment] may be better off
getting in through a Select programme provider• Fulfilment is direct from the donor, CTX don’t stock product so you should
factor this in to any planning

The eXchange
• Community site for organisations registered with CTX• Sharing of information and materials on technology
relevant to UK charities• Input from donors and others with technical knowledge
and sector experience• Groups focussed on specific technology and mission
