AWS Imagine Grant Program

AWS's official Imagine Grant page describes grant categories that can include unrestricted financial support, AWS Promotional Credit, implementation support or guidance, AWS training and support, and AWS marketing promotion for eligible nonprofit projects.

Who it is best for

Nonprofits planning mission-critical AI, cloud migration, data centralisation, application modernisation, high performance computing, IoT, beneficiary-facing platforms, or repeatable cloud solutions with defined outcomes and a credible sustainability plan.
