In 2008, CTT joined the global software donation programme run by TechSoup, to deliver Microsoft’s donation programme in the UK.
TechSoup Global's founding organization CompuMentor was created in 1987 when Daniel Ben-Horin (today Founder and Chief Instigator of TechSoup Global) was inspired by the participants on The WELL, one of the very first online communities, to create a program in which those with technology skills (“mentors”) volunteered to assist nonprofit organizations gain a foothold with new information technologies.
