Magnify your mission's impact through the cloud

AWS is enabling nonprofits to leverage the cloud as a force and resource multiplier for their organizations. Nonprofits are using the data they collect and cloud services to deliver impact in more efficient and meaningful ways. Accelerate your impact where and when it matters most: develop applications that expand your mission delivery, accelerate research and data processing, and deliver critical insights to your internal and external communities.
