non-profit volunteer charity

Curious of any tips on resources available to non-profit/charity sites.

Specifically, any freebies or discounts companies might offer.

For example:

• Hosting (Didn't Acquia offer non profit hosting at one point?)
• Typography (google fonts is a no-brainer, but anything else?)
• Stock images
• General design resources

The project is the creation of a website dedicated to building a worldwide network of people who really want to do something to make a difference in the world helping in whatever way they can. This members in the network would be volunteer. And with the age of the internet truly upon us, with Twitter, iPhones, cheap mobile phone internet access etc etc blossoming all around us, there is no better time.
