Did you know ChatGPT and other AI tools can help your nonprofit save time, generate insights, and boost productivity?

Yep. Here are some ideas to get you started.

• Messaging: Develop or improve your mission and vision statements. If you’ve already narrowed down the keywords or phrases you’d like to include, try typing those in – along with details about your organization – and see what ChatGPT comes up with.

• Operations: Avoid monotonous tasks. Ask ChatGPT to generate a report based on impact numbers, create a timeline for your next project, or draft a memo.

• Fundraising: Generate copy for various stages of the fundraising process, including social media posts, grant proposals, email campaigns, and blog posts. ChatGPT can also help you identify grants you might be eligible for, suggest donation tiers, or brainstorm new fundraising ideas.

• Volunteer Management: Use ChatGPT to write recruitment materials, role descriptions, contracts, schedule templates, training guides, and onboarding materials.

What You Need to Know: Practice makes perfect when it comes to developing prompts that work for you. It is always important to be specific and to provide context. If you request marketing email copy, you must explain the target audience and the goal of the communication.

Warning Flag: Ensure you use external tools and human review before publishing any AI-generated content. As great as ChatGPT is, it can give plausible-sounding but incorrect responses - or even biased and inappropriate ones.
