Non Profit News Pod: AI for Good - Helping Nonprofits Navigate the Future

I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode. Please send me a text...Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the way organizations operate — but for many nonprofit leaders, knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming. In this timely NonProfit NewsPod, I’m joined by Brad Squire, CEO of Sacramento Venture Philanthropy, to discuss the launch of “AI for Good,” an initiative designed to help nonprofits and community leaders better understand and apply AI in practical, mission-driven ways.Brad shares insights from a recent community mixer that brought together nonprofit professionals, business leaders, and technologists to explore how AI can support nonprofit capacity building, improve operational efficiencies, and unlock new opportunities for collaboration and innovation.We discuss: Why nonprofits are both excited and intimidated by AI  The importance of creating community around learning new technology  How AI can help organizations operate more efficiently with limited resources  The new AI for Good workshop series launching in May, June, and July  Real-world nonprofit examples already using custom AI tools and applications  Upcoming hackathons designed to build practical AI solutions for local nonprofits The workshop series includes AI 101, 201, and 301 courses designed for all experience levels — from complete beginners to those interested in building AI-powered workflows and applications.Brad also explains how Sacramento and Rancho Cordova are positioning themselves as emerging leaders in AI innovation and why now is the time for nonprofit organizations to begin engaging with these tools.Learn more and register for the workshops at: SVP Sacramento AI for GoodThank you so much for listening to this nonprofit story!  We appreciate you.
