The A.I. content has the appearance of realism, without actual reality—reality solely as a style.
The platform, called Grantable, is based on the same technology as ChatGPT, and it markets itself to freelancers who charge by the application. That, she thought, clearly threatens opportunities in the industry.“For me, it’s common sense: Which do you think a small nonprofit will pick?” Ms. Brown said. “A full-time-salary-plus-benefits person, or someone equipped with A.I. that you don’t have to pay benefits for?”

I’m delighted to share that TechSoup has just launched the Consultants Connection directory! Consultants Connection solves two problems:
- Nonprofits finally get access a network of verified, trusted consulting firms who have experience helping nonprofits with technology, fundraising, marketing and more.
- Consultants have a way of reaching potential clients and showing how they’re uniquely suited to serve the nonprofit sector.
Consultants, here are some reasons you should join:
- Grow your impact by reaching over 900,000 aligned nonprofits seeking verified, trusted providers
- Streamlined onboarding: Verify your organization and provide key data on your offerings in under 30 minutes
- Dedicated listing & Direct leads: Once you onboard you’ll get a dedicated listing and our automated system will send leads directly to you
- Free Introductory Pricing: Did I mention that it’s currently offered for free?
I’ve been the TechSoup Connect (originally called NetSquared) community manager for 10 years and 10 months. I’ve volunteered as the host of the Vancouver chapter for 13 years and 9 months. That’s a long time, so it’s time to stretch my wings and build new skills. Starting on March first, I transitioned into a new role at TechSoup. I am the Community Manager for a new division focused on app for good developers. Web3 distributed apps will be my first project, so I want to talk if you’re working with Filecoin, web3 technologies, or the decentralized web!
I’ve been blessed to stumble onto two callings in my career – jobs perfectly aligned with where I can bring the most value. First, the Edmonton Folk Music Festival introduced me to the power of volunteer-led community, and then the NetSquared/TechSoup Connect opportunity allowed me to help a community scale globally through the web. It has been a pleasure getting to know the 300+ volunteers who have worked so far to help nonprofits master technology.
Thank you for everything, and you inspire me daily with your commitment to growing a better nonprofit sector. Supporting your efforts has been a dream job,
Elijah van der Giessen
P.S. I’m still the co-host of TechSoup Connect Western Canada, so please join my chapter!
