 Not-for-profits are facing an increasingly complex and competitive landscape, making it essential to leverage technology tools to maximise efficiency and impact. Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are one of the most advanced options for organisations looking to stay ahead of the curve. AI for not-for-profits can improve operations, streamline processes, and create new growth opportunities. However, along with all its benefits, AI technologies have some limitations that not all organisations and charities are fully aware of. In this blog post, we will explore the benefits of using AI tools for not-for-profits, and how to implement these new technologies ethically and efficiently.Posted on 07/05/2024 by Not-for-profits are facing an increasingly complex and competitive landscape, making it essential to leverage technology tools to maximise efficiency and impact.

 “I could not believe the presenter was looking at our actual Facebook page. She looked at around 10 organisations’ pages and gave expert advice on each of them. It was great to see the different things other people are doing and I was also able to use some of the advice she gave to the others.” Sports Chaplaincy New Zealand’s Rebecca Hawkins’ excitement shines through when she talks about what she has learned during TechSoup New Zealand and Connecting Up’s recent “Facebook LIVE Feedback” webinar. Having also touched on everything from how to choose a CRM to how to create compelling digital storytelling, it’s just one of several courses she has completed with TechSoup New Zealand and Connecting Up. “I found the Facebook Live webinar particularly useful,” she says. “I went to a social media master class at the TechSoup New Zealand Conference last year that was given by the same presenter, Kirsty Wallett, so I already had confidence that she knew her stuff.Posted on 17/08/2018 by “I could not believe the presenter was looking at our actual Facebook page.

 Every year on the Thai-Myanmar border eighty nervous young scholars gather for one of the world’s most inspiring graduation ceremonies. As they wait quietly to take the stage, watched by emotional, moist-eyed parents who comprehend the enormity of their achievement more than they will for some years to come, the group of young Karen refugees could be any class, anywhere. But their graduation ceremony, in the sprawling Mae La refugee camp in Thailand, is one of the greatest examples of the triumph of the human spirit you are every likely to hear about. As they accept their certificates, this special group of graduands are a beacon of hope for more than 45,000 of their fellow refugees; a shining example of what can be achieved even by stateless young people who have never known life beyond a refugee camp.Posted on 27/09/2018 by Every year on the Thai-Myanmar border eighty nervous young scholars gather for one of the world’s most inspiring graduation ceremonies.

 TechSoup New Zealand Conference delegates will have the opportunity to connect with each other, see the event program, post social media messages and receive conference updates direct to their mobiles devices thanks to the introduction of the #Transform2019nz app. The app, which will be available to all delegates via direct download links the week before the conference, adds to the 2018 experience by bringing an additional interactive element and enhanced engagement with the conference team. It will feature all of the conference speakers, sponsors and session descriptions, and a venue map, meaning delegates have everything they need in the palm of their hand. News of the app comes hot on the tail of the confirmation of the final panel of speakers for Transform 2019 and the announcement that all full price delegates will be entered into the draw for a $900 Lenovo laptop.Posted on 15/07/2019 by TechSoup New Zealand Conference delegates will have the opportunity to connect with each other, see the event program, post social media messages and receive conference updates direct to their mobiles devices thanks to the introduction of the #Transform2019nz app. The app, which will be available to all delegates via direct download links the week before the conference, adds to the 2018 experience by bringing an additional interactive element and enhanced engagement with the conference team.
