Azure vs AWS for nonprofits - Looking for advice
Hi Gillian, thank you for reaching out. The TechCommunity is the perfect place for you to seek such advice, and we`re happy to help :)
We`re glad to see your nonprofit organization is eligible to the Azure Product Donations and you`re looking forward to start using it. Some of key Azure differentiators can be found at:

If your team is familiar with AWS we could recommend starting at the below links which map the Azure services.

Also, there are in depth free online training resources that are available for developers to learn about Azure:

This should hopefully start your team off.
Separately we would be happy to chat with your team on any specific questions they have in their assessment, experts in the Canadian office will be reaching out to you.
Let us know if we can help you further.
Thanks,
Guillermo
