Teams are constantly promised that AI can save time, scale up services, raise more money, and make smarter decisions. For mission-driven organizations, the real question isn’t “Can we use AI?” It’s “Should we?” This session cuts through the hype to offer a grounded, values-based framework for using AI to amplify participants' good work without compromising human connection, organizational integrity, or community trust. This session helps mission-driven workers build confidence and clarity as they align their AI use with their mission.

10.28-29.2025

Two practical mission-driven AI sessions for nonprofit professionals. Get a clear, no-jargon foundation. We’ll define AI, machine learning, and generative AI—and how they differ from traditional software. Then we’ll cover LLM strengths and weaknesses (hallucinations, bias, context sensitivity) and how these intersect uniquely with nonprofit values like equity, privacy, and sustainability. In our hands-on workshop, learn about risk-reducing workflows and build your own example, grounded in your own work.

At your leisure :)

Bring Sarah, Karen, or both in to your organization for training tailored to your mission, tools, and common tasks. Build your staff’s understanding of AI, clarity about when to say “no,” and skills for ethical, effective AI use.

If you don’t already have an AI policy, you need one! Complete bans don’t work and free-for-alls are risky. We can help you write and communicate clear, safer, and adaptable policies for your goals and context.
