AI vs Nonprofits?? How AI Directly Impacts Your Org

Shakira Episode 79

AI isn’t coming; it’s already here, and nonprofits that don’t adapt risk being left behind. In this episode, we unpack the Forbes article “AI And Nonprofits: Not If Or When, But How,” exploring how charities and social impact organizations can responsibly harness AI to amplify mission-driven work from smart fundraising and grant-writing to impact measurement and reporting. We get real about the human side, too: trust, transparency, ethical guardrails, and keeping people, not machines, at the heart of the mission. You’ll walk away with practical tools, inspiring case studies, and an optimistic roadmap for where AI can take us next.
