Nonprofits are constantly being asked to do more with less.

Raise more money. Engage more supporters. Recruit more volunteers. All while operating with lean teams and limited time.

This month's updates are designed with that reality in mind.

We're introducing AI-powered fundraising content suggestions that can leverage your organization's historical engagement data and performance metrics, making it easier to create campaigns that resonate with your audience. We're also delivering several volunteer management enhancements that reduce administrative work while improving the volunteer experience.

AI Campaign Suggestions Informed by Your Fundraising Data

AI can help you write content faster. The real question is whether it can help you create better fundraising campaigns.

That's where CharityEngine's new AI Agent stands apart. Whether you're launching a new campaign, refreshing a donation form, or looking for inspiration for your next appeal, the AI Agent helps your team spend less time creating content and more time engaging donors.

• Build on what has worked before. Unlike standalone AI tools that start with a blank slate, CharityEngine's AI Agent leverages your organization's engagement history and campaign performance data when generating content recommendations.
• Create content tailored to your supporters. Because suggestions are informed by your fundraising history, the AI Agent delivers more relevant recommendations that reflect your audience, your strategy, and your organization's unique experience.

Spend Less Time Coordinating Volunteers

Volunteers are essential to many nonprofit programs, but managing volunteer opportunities often requires significant coordination behind the scenes.

This month's volunteer enhancements are designed to reduce administrative effort while creating a smoother experience for volunteers.

• Give volunteers the information they need. Volunteer sign-up forms can now display shift dates, times, and remaining available slots automatically. Once a shift is full, it is removed from the form, helping prevent overbooking and eliminating the need for manual updates.
• Send more informative volunteer confirmations. New volunteer-specific merge tokens make it easy to automatically include volunteer post names, dates, times, and other shift details in auto-responder emails and success pages. Volunteers receive the information they need immediately after registering.
• Find volunteer opportunities faster. Volunteer posts and shifts can now be sorted by date in ascending or descending order, making it easier to manage schedules and review upcoming opportunities.
• Manage volunteer activities from one calendar. Volunteer posts can now be displayed directly within the CharityEngine calendar alongside activities, events, and initiatives. You can also choose which record types appear on the calendar and create new records directly from the calendar screen

Together, these updates help organizations spend less time managing logistics and more time engaging the volunteers who make their mission possible.

Simplify Raffle Winner Selection

Managing raffles often involves manual processes, especially when it comes time to select winners.

• Draw raffle winners directly within CharityEngine. Organizations can now randomly select winning raffle tickets without relying on spreadsheets or external tools. Simply enable raffle participation on an event ticket to activate random winner selection.

Access Information the Way You Prefer

We've introduced new options that make it easier to review and share information from CharityEngine.

• Print records or switch to a new panel-style view. Organizations can now generate printer-friendly versions of supported records. Also, users can choose between a traditional tabbed layout and an expanded panel view when reviewing record details.

More Ways to Save Time

Every enhancement in this release is designed with the same goal: helping nonprofits accomplish more without adding complexity.

We look forward to seeing how you put these new features to work.

Together, these updates help organizations spend less time managing logistics and more time engaging the volunteers who make their mission possible.
