As AI agents reshape our world, we champion a future where humans and agents drive social impact together. The Salesforce Accelerator – AI for Nonprofits (India) edition equips nonprofits with funding, cutting-edge technology, and pro bono expertise to confidently create customized AI agent solutions.
As nonprofits face both staffing shortages and burnout, AI agents can augment their teams, enabling staff to focus their time on addressing the world’s greatest social and environmental challenges. With an AI agent on their side, social impact leaders can “do more with less” across all areas of their organization.
Examples include:
- Program Management: Agents provide case managers with real-time client insights and autonomously manage routine tasks like summarizing case notes, scheduling follow-up meetings and sending referrals.
- Volunteer Management: Agents engage volunteers 24/7 with answers – matching volunteers with activities and autonomously scheduling them, while summarizing key updates for coordinators.
- Fundraising: Agents offer tailored fundraising support by surfacing goal-aligned outcomes, coaching fundraisers on donor engagement, and autonomously responding to incoming donor support requests like supplying year-end tax receipts.
From education to climate action, nonprofits from previous Salesforce accelerators are already leveraging agentic AI to streamline operations and drive impact:
College Possible is using AI agents to guide college coaches to better serve students with resources and deadlines, including helping them navigate the financial aid application process. Students and college coaches will also soon have 24/7 access to agents to answer questions and escalate issues.
Good360 is optimizing its disaster response product placement technology with agents — ensuring donated goods reach the right communities efficiently, reducing waste and emissions.
