The nonprofit sector and the technology that supports it stands at a pivotal moment. While we've historically been cautious technology adopters, 2025 marks the year we can no longer afford to wait and watch from the sidelines. Why? Because AI agents are changing our world.
Salesforce CEO, Mark Benioff says AI’s future is agents that "... are not tools. They are becoming collaborators,” in a November Business Insider article.
The title of a recent Forbes’ article by Columnist Bernard Marr says it best: The Third Wave Of AI Is Here: Why Agentic AI Will Transform The Way We Work.
Andrew Ng, co-founder of Google Brain and Coursera stated "It is difficult to think of a major industry that AI will not transform,” and speaks extensively about AI agents in a recent keynote.
The world as a whole is moving beyond AI that simply responds to prompts. These new AI agents can make decisions within defined parameters and execute complex tasks without constant oversight. For nonprofits, this means having a tireless development assistant that doesn't just process data but acts on it, intelligently. In 2025, AI agents won't be a future possibility – they'll be essential team members in leading development offices.
At Givzey | Version2, our unprecedented growth reflects the sector's readiness for AI transformation. Nonprofits will for once be a leader in embracing this opportunity, rather than play catch-up a decade later. We're actively expanding our team across all departments, with a particular focus on bringing aboard seasoned fundraisers whose expertise will be crucial in training our Virtual Engagement Officers.
