Description

Join us for The Chamber’s Nonprofit & Education Committee Breakfast, where leaders from across the nonprofit, education, and business communities come together to connect, collaborate, and engage in meaningful conversations impacting Palm Beach County.

This month's topic:

For nonprofits and education organizations, doing more with limited time, staff, and resources is nothing new. AI is creating new opportunities to do it more strategically.

This practical, forward-looking program will explore how organizations can put AI to work across fundraising, marketing, communications, planning, and everyday operations — while also using it to think bigger, uncover opportunities, and make more informed decisions. Through real-world examples and demonstrations, attendees will learn how to move beyond basic prompts and use AI as a strategic tool to save time, stretch resources, and strengthen organizational impact.
