45-Day Structured Program
The AI Foundation
In 45 days, your organization moves from exploring AI to using it with clarity, confidence, and guardrails. We help you align leadership, establish a practical AI usage policy, select the right tools, and train your staff to use AI responsibly in real work.
Best Fit
Built for mission-driven teams ready to use AI responsibly
This program is designed for nonprofits, community organizations, foundations, associations, educational institutions, and other mission-driven teams that want practical AI adoption without losing sight of people, trust, or mission.
You're a strong fit if:
- Your team is curious about AI but does not yet have shared guidelines
- Staff are experimenting with tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Microsoft Copilot
- Leadership wants clarity before AI use spreads informally
- You want hands-on training grounded in your team's real work
Program Overview
What happens during the 45 days
The Foundation is structured to move your organization from leadership alignment to staff adoption, with practical deliverables at each stage.
AI Governance Workshop
A facilitated leadership session to answer key questions: what data is off-limits, who owns AI decisions, how risk gets evaluated, and what responsible use should look like in your organization.
Outcome: Leadership leaves aligned on priorities, risks, and guardrails.
Custom AI Acceptable Use Policy
We create a policy tailored to your organization's data sensitivities, operational realities, staff roles, and oversight needs.
Outcome: A ready-to-adopt AI usage policy written in plain language.
AI 101 for Every Role
A hands-on session where each team sees practical examples connected to real nonprofit, community, education, communications, program, and operations work.
Outcome: Staff build shared AI literacy and begin seeing practical use cases.
Technology Consultation and Platform Selection
We compare major options such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot, then help identify what fits your systems, data sensitivities, team needs, and budget.
Outcome: A clearer recommendation for which AI platform or platforms make sense for your organization.
Staff Policy Training
A plain-language walkthrough of the new AI usage policy so staff understand what is allowed, what requires caution, and when human review is needed.
Outcome: Staff know how to use AI responsibly within organizational guardrails.
Platform Setup and Feature Training
Guided setup on the chosen platform, followed by focused feature training based on your team's priorities.
Outcome: Staff can begin using the platform for real workflows, not just demos.
Ongoing Support
Continued guidance as the organization grows into its new AI capabilities, identifies new use cases, and navigates questions that emerge after training.
Outcome: Your organization has a path for continued learning, implementation, and responsible adoption.
