Reselling microsoft licenses

Hi, this would be the best starting point as it explains the process for enrolling as a CSP partner.

Initially you would need to enrol as an Indirect CSP partner and this means you must also link up with an Indirect Reseller, think distributor, to begin with.
Once you meet the requirements to become a Direct CSP, you may transition to this partnership which removes the need to you to buy through the Reseller.
You, as a CSP, do need to be approved to sell to non-profit eligible customers. Although it's been a long time since we became a CSP and this may have changed. I would suggest you query this as part of enrolling.
NFR licenses are not really given away by Microsoft, although you may still get some through purchasing an action pack. NFR or IUR (Internal User Rights) licenses are provided to partners based on accomplishing new Solution Partner designations. These are six different categories where you demonstrate through skills, and growth (selling solutions and licenses) to customers.
Each qualifies you for a set on IUR licenses.
