Gravyty was recently featured in Inside Philanthropy, a publication which aims to increase oversight and transparency in large-scale philanthropy. Elisa Shoenberger talks about reshaping the philanthropic industry with technology and points out how AI can impact a number of different parts of the fundraising process from donor prospecting to facilitating outreach emails.

The AAAC is proud to announce its first industry partnership with aasp. Together, we are committed to ensuring that advancement organizations and their staff experience the transformative power of AI, rather than be left behind by it. We're excited to make this major announcement at aasp Summit 2019 this week in Chicago.

The Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County, the first AI-enabled Jewish Federation, will present to attendees about their decision to lead the industry in adopting Gravyty’s fundraiser enablement tools, powered by artificial intelligence (AI) at the FTPI Annual Conference this weekend. Chris Malone, VP of Technology and Campus Operations at Palm Beach County, will take us into the daily lives of his fundraising staff and show the audience how AI-enabled fundraising empowers them to manage current donors and inspire prospects, at scale.

Fundraising systems should exist to keep engagement up, but many fundraisers know that they really act as static metrics on performance. At Gravyty, we believe those expensive systems that measure performance and provide tickers for gift officers in hopes of improving performance only get you so far. Rather, organizations should provide tools that proactively support and prompt the fundraisers to hit their goals with ease.

Gratitude drives giving. In our new video case study with The College of Charleston, see how Gravyty Stewardship prompted timely outreach for a $100 gift, which resulted in a major gift in the form of a new scholarship.

Independent schools have a unique mix of fundraising challenges. Maintaining a philanthropic mindset with young alumni can be challenging, personalizing touchpoints to potential and future donors is difficult to systematically manage, and of course, schools are looking to achieve greater parent and alumni participation. In the same breath leaders need to build a strong major gifts pipeline.

Fundraiser Enablement helps frontline fundraisers build relationships and navigate our physical world. These bonafide road warriors travel far and wide to meet potential donors. Let's look at the #AI technology behind Gravyty Go! that makes planning a trip a simple process.

The most important asset that organizations have when securing a major gift is a fundraiser who develops a deep personal relationship between a change-the-world mission and a donor. But industry research finds 51% of fundraisers plan to leave their jobs by 2021. Within this alarming statistic is a clear message on how organizations can improve and spread a culture of philanthropy.

VIA Public Media, Northeastern Pennsylvania’s PBS and NPR affiliate, serving 22 counties in the region, recently reorganized its development team and efforts to bring all resources onto one team. In this reorganization, Chief Development Officer, Ron Prislupski, identified that VIA’s major gifts program needed help and saw an opportunity to add resources that would increase revenue. In addition to hiring a Planned and Major Giving Officer, his partnership with CDP also identified Gravyty’s AI-enabled fundraising suite of tools as a solution to increase fundraiser activity and inspire more gifts.
