AI for Human Connection

Saison 1 · Épisode 17

lundi 22 septembre 2025 • Durée 58:03

In this episode of the Giving Growth Podcast, Greg Sobiech sits down with Lacey Stone, Chief Development Officer at USA for UNHCR, and Nathan Chappell, Chief AI Officer at Virtuous and co-founder of Fundraising.AI, to explore how non-profits can move beyond segmentation and embrace an AI-first approach to donor engagement.

Lacey shares how USA for UNHCR responded to the Ukraine crisis by welcoming 100,000 new donors and rethinking donor journeys — treating even small-dollar donors with the same care as major givers. She explains how listening, trust, and authentic stewardship are at the heart of retention and long-term loyalty.

Nathan brings his expertise in AI for social good, unpacking how predictive modeling and personalization can help charities build deeper donor relationships. He emphasizes why listening at scale, starting small, and creating a culture of curiosity are essential for successful AI adoption.

Together, they explore:

What it really means to go “beyond segmentation” in fundraising
How USA for UNHCR transformed an influx of emergency donors into long-term supporters
Why listening to donors is often more powerful than traditional segmentation
How nonprofits can use AI to prioritize limited staff time and deepen relationships
Why 70% of AI initiatives fail and the cultural shifts needed to prevent it
The small, consistent steps nonprofits can take today to move toward true personalization

How to connect with the non-profit donors of today

Saison 1 · Épisode 16

mardi 16 septembre 2025 • Durée 01:14:28

In this episode of the Giving Growth Podcast, Greg Sobiech sits down with Chris Pritcher, General Manager at Data Axle and former CEO of RKD Group, to explore why non-profits are struggling to keep pace with today’s donors — and what they can learn from the for-profit world.

Chris explains why declining donor numbers aren’t just about economics or generational change, but about charities being outcompeted by consumer brands that connect more deeply and make giving easier. Drawing on his leadership experience across agencies serving hundreds of nonprofits, he shares how organisations can cut through jargon, focus on human connection, and make smarter use of data without overcomplicating things.

Chris shares insights on:

Why charities are being outcompeted by consumer brands that connect more deeply with people
How to move from channel-first thinking to a truly human-centric approach
The danger of overinvesting in technology instead of focusing on simple, practical improvements
Leadership lessons on shifting from managing processes to unlocking team potential
Why leaders should question “good” results as much as they question “bad” ones

Nathan shares insights on:

Why AI may be the only scalable solution to today’s generosity crisis.
How leaders can build a culture of curiosity that makes AI adoption work.
What it means for a nonprofit to become “AI First”.
