Service providers can use data to demonstrate the need for services as well as the expected impact for clients and communities. This webinar will address the structure of funding proposals\, different types of data\, finding relevant data\, using data to tell stories\, and other tips and tricks.

SUMMARY:Strategic AI for Nonprofit Leaders
DESCRIPTION:This TechSoup session isn’t about tools. It’s about fixing the decision layer that comes first. Most nonprofits are repeating the same pattern we saw with digital: buying the tech\, underestimating human needs\, burning out the team\, and then blaming the tech. AI accelerates that cycle. You’ll learn how to move from scattered\, individual use to a more coordinated\, human-led approach grounded in your mission\, values\, and your team’s real capacity.
