We explore some of the best deals available on the Charity Digital Exchange in 2024, so your charity can kick-off the year with great tech
The past year has proved difficult for charities, with tough economic circumstances leading to increasing demand and decreasing donations. But the sector once again proved its resilience.
And, perhaps for the first time in a long time, the future seems bright. Predictions suggest the economy will improve in 2024. The cost-of-living crisis will likely end, inflation will return to more manageable levels, the commercial environment will improve, and general investment will increase. That means, for charities, that service user demand may decrease, donations may increase, and charities may have the space to make their own investments.
Charities can invest in tech in 2024. New hardware and software can improve operations, extend reach, streamline processes, and support service users. But the benefits of tech depend on investing in the right tech, ensuring a successful return on investment (ROI).
Below we outline options for tech investment in 2024, all of which come at a discounted price for UK charities, all of which can be found on the Charity Digital Exchange.
