I would add to the chorus of approval for fastmail as well. Excellent and reliable service. Used them for many years. I put in a request with my current provider, protonmail to see what they could offer you as a non profit. As soon as I hear back, ill let you know.

I’m also open to doing the hosting on a VPS somewhere and just dealing with maintaining it myself as part of my volunteer time for the org. I’m not at all open to self-hosting email for lots of reasons…
