AI is overwhelming.

You've heard it can be a useful tool.

People are praising it.

People are demonising it.

But where to even begin?

You have so much on your plate and you want information that is going to be useful to your work as a high-value fundraiser.

You don't have time for entire conferences or hours of webinars.

But by ignoring you are wasting such a VALUABLE tool that can SAVE you hours.

AI used properly doesn't just save you hours, it also:

Guides you through donor challenges as your 24/7 coach

Improves donor stewardship by personalising at scale

Edits writing, from thank you letters to funding applications, ensuring consistent quality

Kicks creative roadblocks, and generates fresh ideas for fundraising campaigns, presentations and proposals

Transform complex data sets into clear and engaging visuals

Generates high-quality images and infographics that perfectly complement your messages

It was amazing! I feel I know how to use ChatGPT and Bard for grant writing now, especially to overcome writer's block and to evaluate my answers. It was very informative and I will definitely put the tips into action.

I found the webinar sooo useful! I’ve done a little bit of using AI but the webinar showed me how much more I can get out of it with the right prompts and wording etc – so helpful! Will definitely use these tips going forward.


Who is the AI for High-Value Fundraisers webinar for?

Whether you are a sole fundraiser or part of a team of ten, this webinar is for you if...

You don't have the time to go on multi-day AI conferences


There's so much information out there but knowing what's relevant to YOUR role feels impossible

You don't need to know how AI will improve direct mail


You don't need to know how it will change EVERYTHING in fundraising, just your area

You've dabbled with AI but can't see the value for your work


You need to see specifically how it's going to improve your high-value fundraising, not provide generic content

You could do with extra support to feedback on your work


It's tough to get a fresh perspective when you've been staring at the same doc for days.

You struggle to make a start when faced with a blank page


You've got a million things on your to-do list. Sometimes you can't find the inspiration.

You want to speed up your work but don't know how


There are lots of mundane tasks when it comes to your role and it is sooo time consuming.

Meet your trainer

Hello! I'm Michelle Stein

I'm a fundraising coach and trainer. I specialise in high-value fundraising from major donors, corporates and trusts & foundations. I've worked in the UK and South Africa for a range of organisations including The British Museum, Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa and WaterAid.

I've been using AI for my funding proposals and general donor communications since January 2023. It's made repetitive tasks much easier and quicker and enhanced my writing. I now use AI daily as a way to work smarter, not harder.

I hope you'll join me so I can share with you my AI tips and advice for grant writing.

"Thanks so much Michelle - I loved it - I see soooo many ways AI can save me time at work - the examples you shared were really useful and relevant."

My organisation doesn't use AI. Is this still useful for me?
