Our goal is to make enterprise-grade IT accessible for organizations of every size, so your technology works as hard as your team does without straining your resources.

Tailored IT Services for Nonprofit Organizations

• Cloud solutions and license optimization: We help nonprofits maximize Microsoft 365 Nonprofit, Google Workspace for Nonprofits, and other discounted or free software options. HelixDesk manages migrations, user onboarding, and training so your staff can collaborate from anywhere and your cloud spending is always optimized.
• Cybersecurity and data protection for donor, volunteer, and client records: Protect sensitive information with layered security, including endpoint protection, encrypted backups, access controls, and policy-driven compliance that meets the requirements of major grantmakers and regulatory agencies.
• File sharing and access controls for hybrid or remote teams: We implement secure cloud file storage and permission management for distributed staff, board members, and volunteers. Version control, audit trails, and document recovery keep your mission-critical files safe and available.
• VoIP phone systems with donation hotline and auto-routing support: HelixDesk configures modern phone systems that route calls to the right program or department, support hotlines, and ensure your communications are professional and efficient even with a small team.
• Network setup and low-cost hardware sourcing: We help you stretch your budget for new office buildouts, expansions, or hardware refreshes by sourcing quality computers, printers, and network devices at nonprofit rates.
• Live helpdesk support that respects your team’s time and mission: Our Tucson-based helpdesk is available to solve technical problems quickly, so your staff and volunteers can stay focused on service delivery, not troubleshooting IT issues.

Nonprofit organizations depend on stable, secure, and accessible technology for everything from grant applications and donor management to delivering programs and measuring impact. HelixDesk ensures your systems are always available, easy to use, and fully protected. We help eliminate tech headaches, minimize downtime, and keep your people connected and productive in the office, at home, or in the field. Whether you need support for a fundraising event, new program launch, or board meeting, HelixDesk responds quickly so your mission never slows down.

Our Commitment to Nonprofits

• Experience with all nonprofit sectors: HelixDesk has worked with nonprofits in education, housing, social services, environmental advocacy, healthcare, and more. We understand the grant cycles, compliance needs, and reporting challenges you face.

Local Support, Mission-Aligned Partnerships

HelixDesk never outsources helpdesk calls or forces nonprofits into one-size-fits-all solutions. We build long-term relationships with Tucson nonprofits, providing flexible strategies that scale as your programs grow. Our local technicians are available for onsite and remote support, and you will always have a dedicated account manager who understands your organization’s goals and history.

Grant Funding and Donor Compliance

We know many nonprofits rely on grant funding, and technology spending must be justified and reported to stakeholders. HelixDesk helps you write grant applications for technology upgrades, prepare IT budgets for funders, and document compliance with donor privacy and security requirements.
