Are you curious about AI but unsure where to begin?

Do AI tools feel overwhelming or too technical for your nonprofit team?

Do you wonder how AI can actually support fundraising, communication, or everyday nonprofit work?

Are you concerned about using AI responsibly while handling organisational data?

Many nonprofits are hearing about AI, but very few know how to meaningfully use it within their day-to-day work. With limited resources and small teams, it can often feel difficult to know which tools are useful, what to trust, and how to get started without technical expertise.

In this candid and practical session, Shekar shares his personal journey of exploring AI tools at Shifting Orbits Foundation — what sparked the journey, the tools they experimented with, what worked, what didn’t, and the lessons learned along the way. This is not a technical deep dive, but an honest conversation from someone actively learning how AI can support nonprofit work in practical ways.

The session will explore how tools like NotebookLM, Perplexity, and Claude are being used in day-to-day nonprofit operations, the challenges faced during adoption, and simple ways organizations can begin their own AI journey.
