Microsoft Retires Key Nonprofit Grants: What You Need to Know Before July 1, 2025

Microsoft is retiring its nonprofit grant offers for Microsoft 365 Business Premium and Office 365 E1, effective July 1, 2025. Nonprofit tenants will need to transition to discounted paid licenses at their next renewal. This change aims to streamline licensing models, promote sustainable cloud usage, and enhance security and compliance. Partners are advised to proactively guide their nonprofit clients through this transition, ensuring they understand the changes, available options, and how to budget for the new licensing costs.
