    TL;DR: „10 free Professional seats and up to 70% off – monday.com makes professional work management accessible for nonprofits."

    — Till Freitag

    The monday.com Nonprofit Program at a Glance

    Great tools shouldn't be a matter of budget – especially not for organizations working for the common good. That's exactly why monday.com created a dedicated Nonprofit Program that significantly lowers the barrier to professional work management for verified nonprofits.

    What's Included?

    The program offers verified NGOs the following benefits (as of 2026):

    • 10 free seats on the Pro tier of the Work Management product
    • 70% discount on every additional seat beyond that
    • 33% discount when upgrading to the Enterprise plan
    • The 10 free seats and 70% discount also apply to other monday.com products (CRM, Dev, Service) – for both new and existing accounts

    This isn't a stripped-down freemium package. Pro seats include the full feature set: time tracking, automations, integrations, chart views, private boards, and more.

    New in 2026

    • monday AI included: Nonprofit accounts with Pro seats get access to monday AI – summaries, email drafts, and intelligent suggestions
    • Expanded product coverage: CRM, Dev, and Service are now fully available for existing nonprofit accounts
    • Faster verification: The Goodstack process has been streamlined – verification typically within 24–48 hours

    Who's Eligible?

    monday.com partners with Goodstack to verify nonprofit status. The general requirements:

    • Your organization must be a registered nonprofit (e.g., 501(c)(3) in the US, registered charity in the UK, e.V./gGmbH in Germany)
    • Educational institutions and government agencies are generally excluded
    • Verification runs digitally through Goodstack and typically takes 24–48 hours

    💡 Tip: If you already have a monday.com account, you can apply for nonprofit status retroactively – no need to start from scratch.

    What Does This Mean in Practice?

    Let's take an example: A nonprofit with 25 team members wants to use monday.com Work Management on the Pro plan.

    Without Nonprofit Program With Nonprofit Program
    Seats 1–10 Regular Pro price ($19/user/month) Free
    Seats 11–25 $19/user/month $5.70/user/month (70% off)
    Annual cost (approx.) ~$5,700 ~$1,026
    Savings ~$4,674/year

    For many NGOs, this is the difference between "we manage everything in spreadsheets" and "we have a professional system that scales with us."

    How Till Freitag Supports Nonprofits

    We're honest: As a small consultancy based in Berlin, we can't yet offer full pro-bono projects. The reality is that as a growing team, we need to plan our capacity carefully.

    What we can do – and actively do:

    We offer nonprofit organizations reduced daily rates for implementation, training, and consulting around monday.com. Specifically:

    • Setup & configuration of your monday.com account with the right boards, automations, and workflows
    • Training for your team so you actually use monday.com – not just have it
    • Integration with your existing tools (email, donation management, volunteer coordination)
    • Ongoing consulting for questions about optimizing your processes

    Our Vision

    It's part of our long-term vision to eventually take on pro-bono projects for selected NGOs. When our team is large enough, we want to reserve a portion of our capacity specifically for nonprofit work.

    We believe that great operational processes don't just make businesses more successful – they also amplify the impact of organizations that truly make a difference.

    Until then, we support with what we can: Fair rates, real expertise, and a genuine commitment to taking nonprofit work seriously.

    How to Get Started

    1. Check your eligibility on Goodstack
    2. Apply for nonprofit status – retroactive applications for existing accounts are possible
    3. Talk to us if you need help with setup – we'll put together a fair proposal

    Working at an NGO and want to know how monday.com can transform your day-to-day? Get in touch – we'd love to chat.

    Conclusion

    The monday.com Nonprofit Program is one of the most generous in the SaaS world: 10 free Pro seats, 70% off additional seats, and 33% off Enterprise – making professional work management accessible even for organizations with tight budgets. With the 2026 expansions (AI features, full product coverage), the offer is more compelling than ever.

    And us at Till Freitag? We want to do our part. Today with reduced rates, tomorrow – when we're big enough – with full pro-bono projects. Because great tools and great processes don't just help companies, they help those who make our society better.
