Did you know that Google gives grants in the form of in-kind advertising? Have you heard of Google Grants but don't know how to get one? Then don't miss TechSoup's free event where you will learn about Google Grants and how your nonprofit can receive up to $10,000 to use towards a donation of Google AdWords, Google's in-kind advertising program.

We'll follow-up the webinar with a free, all-day, asynchronous (not live) online event, where you can ask your questions of the Google experts in the TechSoup Community forums: http://www.techsoup.org/go/googlegrants

Join hosts Kristie Ferketich, Google Grants Senior Strategist, German Freiwald, Google Grants Program Strategist, and Kevin Lee, Search Engine Marketing Expert and Co-Founder & Executive Chairman of Didit , as they discuss why and how a Google Grant can help promote your organization's mission. They'll explain how to get started with Google Grants and tips for maximizing the donations of in-kind advertising on Google.

This event is useful for both recipients of the Google AdWords donations and those who are interested in getting a Google Grant for their organization.
