AI for Nonprofits

Grant reports, donor follow-ups and board packs take hours from small teams. We build AI into the tools you already use, and staff approve what goes out.

Less Admin for Small Teams

McCarthy's AI works with nonprofits in Canada, the US and the UK. Every workflow runs in your own accounts, and a staff member approves anything that goes to donors, funders or the people you serve. Donor and client records stay in your systems, and each workflow has a named owner and written documentation.

Admin That Takes Staff Away From Programs

  1. 01

    Grant applications and funder reports

    Each funder asks for its own application and report. Staff rebuild the same program details and numbers every time.

  2. 02

    Donor and volunteer follow-up

    Thank-you notes, renewal asks and volunteer reminders wait until someone has time to write them.

  3. 03

    Board and impact reporting

    Board packs and impact reports pull numbers from several systems by hand every quarter.

Where AI Helps First

Grant drafts from past applications

Drop in a funding call. The agent pulls out the requirements, finds your closest past applications and drafts a response in your format. A staff member edits and submits it.

Funder and impact reports

The agent drafts the report from your program data and last year's report. A program lead checks every number before it goes out.

Donor thank-yous and renewals

New gifts and lapsed donors get a personal first draft from your donor records, ready for a staff member to approve and send.

Volunteer reminders

Shift reminders and follow-ups go out on time, drafted from your volunteer list, with a coordinator approving each batch.

Common Questions

Still deciding? On a free 30-minute call we'll tell you what fits.

  • Can donor and client records go into AI?

    We start with the right AI plan and settings and use only the data you approve. Records stay in your own accounts, and your sharing settings decide what each person can see. Health and family details stay out of any workflow that doesn't need them.

  • Can a nonprofit license its records to AI labs?

    Yes, with 20+ full-time staff and 3+ years of records. Donor, client and beneficiary records stay out of the licensed copy. Before you sign, check your funder agreements, plan for a board resolution and ask your accountant about the rules on business income.

  • Who approves what goes out?

    A staff member approves anything that goes to donors, funders or the people you serve. Each workflow has a named owner on your team who's trained to run it.

AI productivity research: task gains most firms haven't turned into profit

Controlled trials show generative AI speeding up writing, coding, consulting and support work, with the biggest gains going to newer and less-skilled staff. Economy-wide savings are still small, and the firms reporting results are more likely to have redesigned the work around the tool.
