In today's digital world, nonprofits must embrace technology to remain competitive and fulfill their mission. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful tool that can help nonprofits operate more efficiently and effectively. ChatGPT is a tool that stands out for its potential to revolutionize the nonprofit sector. It is not meant to replace humans, but to serve as a powerful tool in the hands of dedicated and compassionate human beings. ChatGPT can help nonprofits automate mundane tasks, streamline their operations, and improve customer service. According to Nicole Lamoureux, President & CEO of the National Association of Free and Charitable Clinics (NAFC), ChatGPT can help nonprofits elevate their marketing strategies for 2024.

Since the program began a few short years ago, five grantee organizations have raised nearly a million dollars using OneCause software.

In a recent discussion, the CFO of a mid-sized nonprofit revealed a common misconception: that transitioning from corporate to nonprofit roles would be easier. In reality, CFOs in nonprofits are often faced with the challenge of managing restricted grants, which come with strict requirements. These grants are donations given with specific conditions, such as earmarking funds for a particular purpose or limiting how the money can be spent. To make matters more difficult, nonprofits typically have six months or less of cash reserves. To help with this issue, new solutions are emerging that can simplify grant management for nonprofits.
