We look at some incredible deals for charities on the Charity Digital Exchange
Black Friday can be a slight taboo in the charity sector, with the focus on rampant consumerism and emphasis on the commercial. But Black Friday does provide an opportunity for charities to invest in needed tech at a much lower price.
Charity Digital offers discounts and donations all year round, but ‘tis the season to give people bargains, so we thought we’d get involved. Below we run through some of our best discounted offers, looking at bundles, donations, and other options that can save charities money.
Remember to check back for new deals, as we’ll be updating regularly in the lead-up to Black Friday, adding new offers and new discounts all the time.
Cyber security is an essential issue in the charity sector. Charities are increasingly targeted, usually because criminals know that charities seldom have robust protection. Luckily, cyber security experts at Avast can help.
Charity Digital has put together ‘Charity essential cyber bundles’ which allow charities to take advantage of an increased discount over multiple years. The essentials include Avast Business Antivirus, Avast Content Filtering, and Avast Patch Management in Cloudcare, all based on a 24-month subscription.
The bundle offers charities a discount of more than 86%.
The complete package costs just £24 + VAT. And the benefits are huge. Charities receive protection against cyber threats, better security with alerts for sensitive websites, patch management protection, and so much more.

Dell are offering amazing deals throughout November, but the offers will change or disappear once stock runs out – so don’t miss your chance.

The Lenovo Discount Programme is a collection of discounts available to charities and libraries for desktops, laptops, monitors, tablets, software, and accessories.
Charities that need to embark on tech housekeeping, updating your monitors and hardware and anything else, can find incredible deals with Lenovo – all through the Charity Digital Exchange.
Discounts of up to 10% on Lenovo hardware and up to 20% on Lenovo accessories are available. You can look around the Lenovo website, find software or hardware that will help your charity, apply the discount, and save masses of money. It’s that simple.
One of the most popular discounts on the Charity Digital Exchange is Adobe’s Acrobat Pro 2020, available for both Windows and Mac. The product helps charities to view, create, combine, and control PDF documents for distribution, collaboration, and data collection.
In addition, charities can publish outreach materials or professional reports that combine multiple types of content, save paper and money by creating and distributing electronic documents and forms, and ensure document accessibility for people with disabilities.
The popularity of Adobe Acrobat is no surprise, especially considering the donated product costs just £45.00 + VAT and could massively improve your marketing and comms.
As we recently announced, the Microsoft program will be changing on 4 April 2022, with on-premise solutions offered at less of a discount. The reason is the general shift towards the cloud that Microsoft, and plenty of others, have been championing.
The good news is that charities will have access to Microsoft cloud donation offers through Charity Digital Exchange. The donation offers are huge and certainly worthy of consideration.
Here are some of the most popular cloud offers available to charities:
