OpenAI nonprofit jam
OpenAI News在OpenAI,我们致力于打造帮助人们解决难题的工具——其中包括那些在社区一线工作的非营利组织。这些组织每天都在为人们带来改变,无论是支持求职者寻找工作、帮助患者在诊所登记、扩大教育机会,还是帮助人们获得稳定住房。然而,许多此类组织人员有限、预算紧张,且几乎没有时间去探索可能助力其工作的全新技术。
为缩小这一差距,OpenAI学院(OpenAI Academy,https://academy.openai.com/)携手沃尔顿家族基金会(Walton Family Foundation,https://www.waltonfamilyfoundation.org/)、埃默森集体(Emerson Collective,https://www.emersoncollective.com/)及一网络地方非营利组织,共同举办“非营利组织创意日”(Nonprofit Jam)——这是一场为期一天、覆盖全国的活动,汇聚了来自10个地点的1000多名非营利领导者。从阿肯色州到俄亥俄州,从加利福尼亚到纽约,我们的团队将与这些领导者合作,探索生成式人工智能如何助力扩大他们的影响力——并倾听、学习及与这些关键工作者协作。
人工智能的核心是一种提升生产力的技术,能够帮助人们更好地思考、学习、创造和建设。非营利组织创意日将聚焦于将这些生产力提升带入慈善领域,教授实用且动手操作的AI使用方法,惠及包括弱势社区在内的所有人。参与者将使用ChatGPT打造符合其具体需求的新工具——从简化案例管理、改善社区联络,到提升服务交付效率。
关键在于,只有当AI公司首先倾听最了解其社区的组织,并与之合作开发能够节省时间、扩大影响、降低成本的AI工具时,这些效益才能实现。这类合作将使AI工具惠及更多人群,这与OpenAI“打造惠及所有人的AI”的使命高度契合。
活动前,参与者可通过OpenAI学院的在线资源中心(https://academy.openai.com/home/collections/3-steps-to-ai-literacy-for-nonprofits-2025-06-30)学习AI基础知识,为非营利组织创意日做好准备。活动结束后,他们将加入线上社区,继续学习、与同行交流并深化所学内容。
此次活动延续了我们今年早些时候举办的“1000科学家AI创意日”(https://openai.com/global-affairs/1000-scientist-ai-jam-session/)的成功经验,该活动汇聚了美国国家实验室的研究人员,共同探讨AI如何推动科学发现。通过这两项努力,我们将强大的AI工具直接交到应对重大挑战的专家手中,并从他们的实践中学习。
OpenAI为每位非营利组织创意日参与者提供12个月免费ChatGPT Plus使用权限,以支持其持续工作。8月,我们将发布一份简短报告,分享关键见解、案例研究和经验教训,展示非营利组织如何开始将AI融入日常工作。OpenAI由非营利机构管理,我们致力于优先考虑长期影响和广泛公共利益,而非短期收益,确保我们的工作满足全球各地人们和组织的需求。
OpenAI全球事务主管Chris Lehane表示:“非营利组织常常是社区面临挑战时最先挺身而出的人,但他们通常也是最后能享受变革性新技术红利的群体。非营利组织创意日改变了这一局面——确保非营利组织能够使用我们领先的AI工具。这是创新民主化的体现,让AI的益处惠及尽可能多的人,而非少数人。”
沃尔顿家族基金会执行董事Stephanie Cornell表示:“非营利组织创意日为社区领导者提供工具、技能和思维方式,强化连接、协作和影响力。通过结合行之有效的方法和新工作方式,非营利组织能够示范如何最佳利用AI解决现实世界的挑战。”

At OpenAI, we build tools to help people solve hard problems—including nonprofits working on the frontlines of their communities. These organizations make a difference for people every day, whether it’s supporting jobseekers trying to find work, helping patients enroll at health clinics, expanding access to education, or connecting people to stable housing. Yet many of these groups operate with limited staff, tight budgets, and little time to explore new technologies that could aid them in their work.
To help close that gap, the OpenAI Academy is teaming up with the Walton Family Foundation, Emerson Collective, and a network of local nonprofit organizations to host the Nonprofit Jam—a one-day, nationwide event bringing together more than 1,000 nonprofit leaders across 10 locations. From Arkansas to Ohio and California to New York, our teams will work with these leaders to explore how generative AI can help scale their impact—and listen to, learn from, and collaborate with those at the center of this vital work.
At its core, AI is a productivity-driving technology that can help scale the ability of people to think, learn, create, and build. The Nonprofit Jam will focus on bringing these productivity gains to philanthropy by teaching practical, hands-on ways to use AI to benefit everyone, including those in underserved communities. Participants will use ChatGPT to build new tools tailored to their specific needs—from streamlining case management, to improving community outreach, to enhancing service delivery.
Crucially, those gains will only come if AI companies first listen to the organizations that know their communities best—and then collaborate to build AI tools that enable them to save time, expand their reach, and reduce costs. These kinds of partnerships will get AI into the hands of more people, which is squarely aligned with OpenAI’s mission of building AI that benefits everyone.
Prior to the event, participants will have access to an online resource hub on OpenAI Academy to help them learn the basics of AI and prepare for the Nonprofit Jam. Afterward, they’ll join an online community where they can continue learning, connect with peers, and expand on what they started.
The event builds on the success of our 1,000-Scientist AI Jam earlier this year, which brought US national labs researchers together to explore how AI can help advance scientific discovery. Across both efforts, we're putting powerful AI tools directly into the hands of experts tackling some of our biggest challenges, and learning from how they put these tools to work.
OpenAI is providing every Nonprofit Jam participant with 12 months of free access to ChatGPT Plus to support their ongoing work. And in August, we’ll publish a short report with key insights, case studies, and lessons learned to showcase how nonprofits are beginning to integrate AI into their day-to-day work. OpenAI is governed by a nonprofit, so we’re built to prioritize long-term impact and broad public benefit over short-term gains—and to ensure our work impacts the needs of people and organizations everywhere.
“Nonprofits are often first to step up when communities face tough challenges, but they’re usually the last to benefit from transformative and disruptive new technologies. The Nonprofit Jam flips that script – ensuring nonprofits have access to our leading AI tools. It’s about democratizing innovation so that AI’s benefits reach as many people as possible, not just a select few.” – Chris Lehane, Chief Global Affairs Officer, OpenAI
“The Nonprofit Jam is a chance to give community leaders the tools, skills, and mindsets to strengthen connection, collaboration, and impact. By combining proven approaches and new ways of working, nonprofits can model how to best use AI to solve real-world challenges.” – Stephanie Cornell, Executive Director, Walton Family Foundation
At each of the 10 Nonprofit Jam locations, regional nonprofit partners and community conveners are helping tailor the event to meet the specific needs of local organizations, including:
- Oakland, CA – TechSoup
- Los Angeles, CA – Center for Nonprofit Management and Goldhirsh Foundation
- Salinas, CA – Digital NEST
- Denver, CO – Community Resource Center, Colorado Nonprofit Association and Philanthropy Colorado
- Dallas, TX – Heartland Forward, North Texas Commission, and NTEN
- Chicago, IL – NTEN
- Columbus, OH – The Columbus Foundation
- New York City, NY – Robinhood Foundation
- Wilmington, DE – Tech Impact and Delaware Alliance for Nonprofit Advancement (DANA)
- Bentonville, AR – Heartland Forward
We want to thank the Decoded Futures, National Center for Civic Innovation, and the Fund for the City of New York for supporting the event and sharing their insights on how nonprofits can adopt and leverage technology with participants.
This initiative reflects our commitment to ensuring that the benefits of AI are accessible to everyone. We're excited to learn from today's participants and to continue building tools that empower communities and expand opportunity.
