Sound Familiar?
No advertising budget
You have a mission worth sharing, but no budget for search ads. Social media posts alone can't reach the people who need you.
IT tool costs add up
Email, calendar, storage — the monthly cost of essential cloud tools is a real burden for your organization.
Aware but unsure how to apply
You've heard of Google for Nonprofits, but the English interface and eligibility criteria feel like barriers.
Approved but underutilizing
You have Ad Grants but lack the know-how to use the $10,000/month in ad credits effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which organizations are eligible?
In Japan, eligible entities include NPO corporations, non-profit general incorporated associations, public interest incorporated associations/foundations, and social welfare corporations. For-profit general incorporated associations are not eligible. Contact us for a free eligibility check.
How long does the application process take?
Google's review typically takes 2–4 weeks. Including document preparation, you can start running Ad Grants campaigns within about one month.
Is the $10,000/month in Ad Grants really free?
Yes, completely free. Google provides this program to support nonprofits' social missions — no credit card required. However, there are operational rules such as a $2 CPC cap and maintaining a 5% CTR.
Can I use Ad Grants alongside regular Google Ads?
Yes. Your regular Google Ads account and Ad Grants account are managed separately. When Ad Grants ads are shown, no charges apply.
