Would you have any idea who we're able to contact about this? I'm involved in a registered UK charity and we were looking to use Google Apps before, but can't justify the monthly cost of $5 per account.
I asked the organisation, and found out that it's not an official programme in the UK. The only one they have here is Google Grants for AdWords - http://www.google.co.uk/grants/.
Basically, an enterprising IT volunteer had set them up with vanilla Google Apps back when it was still free for small business and had a 50 user limit, and they just got grandfathered in to the new Apps for Business. They've never had any problems with the user or space limit since they just use the setup for email, analytics and AdWords campaigns and only have about 4-6 people "working" there.
Ah. The offering used to be called Google Apps for Domains back when users could still sign up for free 100/50/10-user-limit accounts. Google Apps for Business, in some of our minds, is the post-December 2012 paid service.

Apologies again.
