January 7, 2026 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM (EST)

Description

AI isn’t here to replace your mission—it’s here to strengthen it. In this session, we’ll break down myths, clarify what AI really is, and show how nonprofits are already using it to save time and amplify impact. You’ll see practical tools in action and leave inspired to harness innovation for good. Your mission deserves this future—join us!

This 4-part series is the perfect way to put your team at ease with AI implementation. Organizations that send at least one representative to each session will receive a certificate of completion too!
