Eligible Organizations

Who We Support Through the Giveback Program

The goal of the giveback program is to spread AI literacy to organizations that are doing good work in Oregon communities but don't have the budget to invest in AI training on their own.

Eligible Organization Types

  • Local 501(c)(3) nonprofits (any focus area)
  • Oregon schools and school districts (public or private)
  • Community action agencies
  • Libraries and library districts
  • Arts organizations and environmental groups
  • Tribal organizations and Indigenous-led nonprofits
  • Food banks, shelters, and mutual aid organizations
  • Co-ops and community-owned businesses with nonprofit arms

Geographic Focus

Priority goes to organizations serving the Pacific City to Portland corridor in Oregon, but I'll consider any Oregon-based organization you nominate. Online sessions extend reach statewide.

How to Nominate

Once you've completed 12 hours of paid coaching, reach out with the name of the organization you'd like to nominate. I'll confirm eligibility and handle all the outreach and scheduling.

You don't need a personal connection to the organization — just a belief that they'd benefit from AI literacy training.

Real Impact

In 2025, this program will support small nonprofit staff learning to use AI for efficiency, teachers integrating AI literacy into classrooms, and community organizations stretching limited resources further.
