Discontinuation of M365 Business Premium Grant Deeply Disappointing,Harmful to Small Nonprofits
As a Microsoft CSP partner supporting multiple nonprofit organizations, I am extremely disappointed by the decision to discontinue the Microsoft 365 Business Premium grant. This change disproportionately affects small nonprofits that rely on these tools to fulfill their missions with limited resources. The justification that this is about “alignment” or “sustainability” is disingenuous. Let’s be honest—this is a revenue-driven decision that undermines Microsoft’s long-standing commitment to empowering nonprofits. Removing access to essential tools like Office desktop apps and Intune from the grant program forces small organizations into paid plans they cannot afford, jeopardizing their operations and security. Microsoft has built goodwill in the nonprofit sector over the years. This move erodes that trust. I urge you to reconsider this decision or at least provide a longer transition period and more flexible options for small nonprofits. Please do better. The nonprofit sector deserves more than a corporate cost-cutting maneuver disguised as a strategic realignment.Ignite session: Empowering impact with Cloud for Nonprofit and AI

Volunteer Engagement Opportunities not displaying for anonymous users
We set up B2C authentication on our Volunteer Engagement portal, and now the list of current engagements is not displaying for anonymous users. Volunteers who want to sign up for an engagement need to log in, and that's working - but when someone who's not logged in tries to view the opportunities on the same page, it returns with "Your search did not match any Engagement Opportunities". The page is set to Anyone can view. Hoping someone has the answer.... Thanks! https://volunteer.maineirish.com
