Mapbox nonprofit support

Mapbox's official Nonprofit Support page says Mapbox supports hundreds of nonprofit organizations each year with donated or discounted services, technical guidance, and promotion.

Who it is best for

Charities and NGOs building service maps, disaster logistics tools, environmental monitoring, campaign maps, location search, route planning, supporter storytelling, or public-interest geospatial apps.

Eligibility notes

Nonprofits should start building with Mapbox free tiers, apply if usage exceeds free tiers, expect applications to be reviewed in May and November, and renew annually if approved. Education, student, or research projects should use Mapbox's education guidance instead.
