New Bootcamps for Nonprofits Building with AI or Data

Join us virtually this August for deep dives into AI (August 20–22) and data (August 27–29) — or attend both! You’ll walk away with practical guidance on everything from model tuning to data infrastructure. Apply by June 30.

Making the Future of Work Brighter

It’s graduation season, and the future is on a lot of minds. For students and workers alike, navigating transitions can be overwhelming, especially without support. Luckily, nonprofits are stepping up to help. Take Uprooted Academy. Founder Tiffany Green didn’t have a mentor when applying to college, so she built Uprooted to make sure others do. In this month’s AI for Humanity, meet three organizations using AI to guide people through big turning points, from college apps to workplace challenges.
