Best AI tools for nonprofits
Small nonprofits use AI to stretch thin teams: drafting grant applications and donor emails, making social graphics, summarizing meetings and organizing volunteers. Many software companies offer nonprofit discounts or free plans, which can change which tool is the best value. Our guide notes those programs where the vendor publishes them, along with eligibility rules. We also cover the care needed with donor data and the importance of checking AI drafts for accuracy before sending anything to funders.

Questions people ask
Do AI companies give nonprofit discounts?
Several do, often through their own programs or through TechSoup. Our guide lists the ones published on vendor sites.
Can AI write a grant application?
AI can draft sections and check a proposal against a funder's guidelines, but funders expect accurate, specific detail that only you can provide.
Is it safe to put donor data into AI tools?
Only if the tool's privacy terms allow it and your policies permit it. Avoid pasting sensitive donor details into consumer chatbots.
