Who This Is For

Nonprofits, churches, ministries, foundations, community agencies, schools and associations across South Bend, Mishawaka, Elkhart, Goshen, Plymouth and Northern Indiana — typically 5 to 60 paid staff plus volunteers, a mix of office computers and shared devices, a donor or member database that is the heart of the organization, a board that asks about cybersecurity once a year, and a budget where every dollar on technology is a dollar not spent on the mission.

The Problem: Same Risks as a Business, a Fraction of the Resources

A nonprofit holds data a business would envy — donor names and giving history, client case files, member and family information, sometimes health or financial details — and runs on the trust of the people who provided it. It is also run, technologically, the way most organizations are at that size: a board member who "knows computers," a shared login for the front desk, a laptop that went home with a volunteer, a backup that may or may not be working, and email that gets a convincing "I need you to buy gift cards for the staff, I'm in a meeting" message from the executive director's spoofed address every few months.

Meanwhile, most of these organizations are leaving real money on the table: nonprofit licensing from Microsoft and others, donated and discounted software through TechSoup, security tools with nonprofit tiers. Claiming what you're eligible for often pays for the IT support that keeps it all running.

What We Do for Nonprofits

Nonprofit licensing, claimed

We verify your eligibility, enroll you in Microsoft's nonprofit program and TechSoup, and move you onto the grants and discounts you qualify for. Then we re-check every year, because the programs change.

Donor and client data security

MFA everywhere, named logins with least privilege, encrypted devices, email protection against the impersonation scams aimed at nonprofits, and a donor database that only the right people can reach.

Volunteers and shared devices

Volunteer accounts that give exactly what the role needs and nothing more; kiosks and shared computers locked down; access removed promptly when involvement ends.

Backup and continuity

Immutable backups of the donor database, files and Microsoft 365, restore tests on a schedule, and a plan for the Sunday the server doesn't come up. See backup and disaster recovery.

Grant-ready technology budget

A realistic 12–36 month plan — replacements, licensing, security, support — in a form you can put in an application or in front of the board.

Help desk that treats volunteers like staff

A person answers. Most problems fixed remotely in the same call. On-site when hardware fails. No question too small, including "is this email real?"

What's Included

  • Licensing program enrollment and annual review
  • 24/7 monitoring of servers, workstations, network and backups
  • Unlimited help desk, remote and same-day on-site
  • Security stack — email protection, endpoint detection, MFA, encryption, staff and volunteer security training
  • Backup with scheduled restore tests
  • Access management — onboarding and offboarding for staff and volunteers as soon as you tell us
  • Technology budget and a quarterly review the board can read

How We Start

  1. Claim what you're owed. Eligibility verified, programs enrolled, licensing moved — this often funds the rest.
  2. Basics first. A backup you can restore, MFA on email, named logins, exposed remote access closed.
  3. Train the people. A short session for staff and key volunteers on the scams aimed at organizations like yours.
  4. Document and plan. What you have, what's aging, what the next three years cost, in a page the board understands.
  5. Operate. Monitoring, help desk, maintenance and the annual licensing and security review.

Pricing

Managed IT is priced per user and device. Nonprofits typically have fewer paid staff and more shared devices than a business of the same size, and we structure agreements so volunteer-only accounts and kiosk devices aren't billed like full workstations. Projects are quoted as fixed prices; hourly work follows our published rates. Most organizations find the licensing savings we recover cover a meaningful share of the monthly fee.

"IT Support That's Fast, Friendly, and Easy to Trust"

LecsIT has significantly improved our security. It's comforting to know we're protected from phishing, scams, and shutdowns. Their fast, friendly support makes a big difference, and their technicians are clear, patient, and easy to work with.
