How can artificial intelligence help grow your 501(c)(3) nonprofit? Toby Mathis sits down with nonprofit attorney and former IRS Exempt Organizations expert Karim Hanafy to share six practical ways nonprofits can use AI for fundraising, donor outreach, grant research, marketing, social media, and daily operations.
Whether you’re starting a nonprofit or managing an established organization, AI can help your team save time, improve efficiency, and increase its impact without adding staff.
You’ll learn how to use AI to strengthen your nonprofit mission statement, create website content, improve fundraising emails, research grants, develop social media campaigns, and streamline board meetings and internal operations.
How Nonprofits Can Use AI to Save Time and Grow
Nonprofit organizations often operate with limited staff, budgets, and resources. AI can help teams complete time-consuming tasks faster while generating ideas for fundraising, marketing, donor communications, and operations.
The key is knowing where AI can help—and where human judgment and professional guidance are still essential.
AI for Nonprofit Marketing and Donor Fundraising
AI can help nonprofits create website content, content calendars, donor emails, fundraising campaigns, newsletters, social media posts, and donation appeals.
Instead of starting from scratch, nonprofit leaders can use AI to generate ideas and drafts that can then be customized to match their organization’s mission and voice.
Using AI for Grant Research and Grant Applications
Finding nonprofit grants and preparing applications can take hours of research.
AI can help identify potential grant opportunities, funding sources, foundations, and application requirements while assisting with early drafts and research.
However, AI-generated grant information should always be verified directly with the funding organization.
