REGISTRATION

Description:

Are you wondering whether you can or should use AI to write grants? You’re not alone. Many nonprofit professionals are asking the same question. The truth is, there’s no universal answer. Every funder has a different perspective, and no single standard exists across the sector. Still, you can prepare yourself to navigate the variety of situations you might face.

In this session, Alice Ruhnke and David Gates will share real-world examples of AI policies from grantmakers and funders. We’ll explore the potential scenarios you may encounter when deciding whether or not to use AI in your grantwriting process.

You’ll discover:
  • how expectations vary widely and why understanding each funder’s perspective is critical;
  • strategies for approaching funders who don’t have clear guidelines;
  • what to do if a funder explicitly prohibits AI use; and,
  • concrete examples of existing AI policies.

You’ll leave ready to engage in informed, confident conversations with funders about AI and your grantwriting efforts.

Who should attend:

TargetEDs are designed with beginners in mind. This session is perfect for any member of a nonprofit organization seeking to better understand AI use in the nonprofit sector.

After the webinar, you’ll receive:
  • slides and handouts; and,
  • a link to the webinar recording.
