Last Month, Tim Sarrantonio touched on artificial intelligence (AI) in engagement strategies for recurring donors. AI will impact so many fundraising areas that we will take a wider dive into it with Carl Servi from CCS in our May 23rd Virtual Lunch program.

Artificial Intelligence is the greatest technological advancement of this generation. It has the potential to help fundraisers improve relationships, automate tasks, and improve fundraising ROI for those who understand how to use the technology.

Servi will not only explore different fundraising applications of AI, including data analysis, donor engagement, writing, grant applications, and implementations but also delve into the ethical considerations associated with them. Understanding these considerations is not just important, but a responsibility we all share as fundraisers. Join us to gain a comprehensive understanding of AI in fundraising.

Since joining CCS in 2011, Carl Servi has provided counsel to numerous clients in the faith-based, health, education, and social service sectors. His areas of expertise include project management, capital campaigns, feasibility and planning studies, organizational development, data analysis, volunteer management, major gifts, and annual fundraising.

Carl is a strong believer in the power of philanthropy and the opportunities it can provide. “I am blessed to have been the beneficiary of the generosity of others through scholarships. I have experienced firsthand the impact philanthropy can provide.”

Growing out of these experiences, Carl appreciates the importance of being socially just and giving back to those less fortunate. Therefore, he chose to pursue a career in helping nonprofits provide opportunities to those who need it most.

Originally from Dublin, Ireland, Carl resides in Rockville Centre, on Long Island, with his wife, Caroline, and their children, Mairéad (4) and Aidan (6 months). He is a proud graduate of Belvedere College S.J. in Dublin and The University of Scranton in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
