Product Grant Program

Cisco welcomes applications for the Product Grant Program from community partners around the world who share our vision and offer an innovative approach to a critical social challenge.

Program Overview

Cisco donates our own technology to qualifying nonprofit organizations to help them realize significant gains in productivity, security, scalability, and cost efficiency. Our program enables partners to make innovative use of networking and communications technology to create a measurable impact.

The Cisco Technology Grant Program focuses on the same social investment areas as our cash grants: climate impact and regeneration; Cisco Crisis Response (which includes shelter, water, food, and disaster relief); economic empowerment; and education.
