The AI Fundraising Revolution: Rethinking Fundraising in the Age of Intelligent Tools

Salvatore (Sal) Salpietro was employee number one at Fundraise Up and watched it grow from a startup to over 3,500 employees. Now, as Chief Growth Officer at Dataro, he's got a front row seat to the collision of AI and fundraising. Sal and Graeme unpack the K-shaped economy and what declining donor counts (but rising gift sizes) really mean for nonprofit strategy. They explore the 10-80-10 rule for keeping humans in the loop, how predictive AI is helping major gift officers work smarter instead of harder, and why adopting an 'AI-first' approach could be the difference between thriving or struggling.Identify one manual process in your fundraising workflow — like building a mid-level prospect list — and explore one AI tool that could help you do it faster and smarter.Sal's LinkedInGraeme's LinkedInhttps://dataro.io/https://www.anthemcreative.ca/
