    Google drive is going to be your best option. Pay the $1.99/mo extra and you get 100GB of space. No other solution is going to get you the collaboration features of Gapps/Gdrive.

      What you save in dollars you lose in rights.

      Never store important data, that could be stolen, mined or otherwise expropriated for other’s benefit on public or corporate servers.

      If the authors of the non-profit data already use MS office, investigate the collaboration features already present in the software.

      Then, you simply need a SMB share over a VPN to host it somewhere. If that’s a PC in someone’s house or a VPC / dedicated server at a colo., you are in control of your own data, not a company that is a serial abuser of people’s rights.

        It would help understand why Google drive is not sufficient for your purposes, or what requirements you want out of your cloud service provider
