AI for Fundraising

Most small nonprofits know AI matters but have no idea where to start, especially when every hour is already spoken for. This hands-on session demonstrates how organizations with two- and three-person teams are using AI tools they already have to find new prospects, discover and draft grants, and land sponsorships. It also makes governance practical by demonstrating how to develop a brand assistant that keeps every message on voice, and an AI policy that functions as a living, interactive guide staff can actually ask questions of, instead of a PDF nobody reads. Drawing on results from cohorts of 12 US nonprofits and current Canadian clients, including one organization that secured roughly $20,000 in new sponsorships, participants leave with concrete workflows they can put to work the same day. No hype. No theory. Just practical fundraising capacity.
