Activate the YouTube Non-profit Programme
To activate your account:
- Sign in to Google for Nonprofits with your organisation's administrative account.

Google will review your request within 2–14 business days and send you an email once the review is complete. After the YouTube Non-profit Programme is activated, you can start using all the benefits available to nonprofits and channel features for YouTube creators.
