Leveraging AI for Nonprofit Fundraising

McKinsey estimates that Generative AI tools are adding $2.6 – $4.4 trillion annually to the economy; and Goldman Sachs estimates a 7% increase in GDP over the next 10 years as a result of these technologies. But what does this mean for fundraising in Wisconsin communities,
particularly the Greater Madison region?

In this session, Sam Leary will demystify topics surrounding AI in and beyond the Madison region to help local fundraising teams get ahead. The session will focus on generative AI, specifically ChatGPT, but also Google Gemini, and Bing Chat, providing practical insights on how fundraising professionals can leverage AI to enhance their productivity, fundraising efforts, and overall organizational success.
