If you got your church to qualify then maybe they will set you up with a license? MS also allows unlimited binary installs (PC, iOS, Android, etc) for each individuals assigned license plus some discounts on the Win10 OS you could use as an AppVM. There is also TechSoup.org which provides discounted software and refurbished hardware to qualifying nonprofits. I am also battling with the Office365 products on Qubes. If you want to have discussion off line please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I know about the MS NonProfit program because I have my own startup 501(c)(3) ( hdri.org) for doing medical research on a long ignored disease that has no test, no cure, no statistics collected because nobody ever gets diagnosed, and so currently it will never be funded for any research in humans. Your dog can be easily tested and cured but you would likely get kicked out of the clinic or ignored for even suggesting you might have this very same disease. It's being treated exactly the same as Lyme disease was back on the 60's. Will they ever learn?
