AI Starter Pack for NPOs: Guardrails + 30‑Day Program

Use this to move from Dabbler to Integrator. Pick one workflow, run 10 reps, measure results. Keep it simple.

One‑page guardrails

1) Data boundary (never paste)

Donor personal data (names + giving history)
Financial account numbers
HR, discipline, or sensitive volunteer issues
Anything you wouldn’t forward by email

Only use AI tools with an enterprise guarantee that your org’s workspace data is not used to train models.

2) Quality standard

AI output is a first draft
Human review required before sharing externally
If errors are costly or silent, don’t use AI

3) Human ownership

One named reviewer is accountable
AI is an assistant, not an authority

4) Workflow rule

If AI adds steps, redesign the workflow or stop using it.
