Even with the best planning, hardware and software can fail, prized employees can leave, and the unexpected can disrupt operations. A disaster is often the time when it’s critical for mission-based workloads (such as credit union banking or fundraising solutions) to be available.

Nonprofit and mission-based organizations can use generative AI to better scale their impact. In this session, learn about the generative AI solutions that AWS offers and how these solutions are within reach of every organization.

Public and private organizations are interested in solving some of the world’s most pressing problems with machine learning, but many are unsure how to get started. This chalk talk walks through AWS AI/ML services and the types of humanitarian, environmental, social impact, and other mission challenges they can solve.

Private and public institutions have access to vast amounts of social media posts, reviews, customer service or constituent communications, and blogs that have information on how stakeholders feel about their brands, programs, and services. Understanding the voice of the donor or stakeholder is essential for these organizations to react quickly to feedback, identify issues and trends, and make...

Nonprofits are solving some of the world’s most pressing problems, and machine learning can help. However, machine learning can seem complex, and many organizations are unsure how to get started.

Mercy Corps and American Red Cross are working with AWS to apply cloud technology to address rapidly changing and challenging humanitarian crises. American Red Cross used AWS expertise and Amazon Connect to quickly deploy an information line in Warsaw, Poland, so that Ukrainian refugees can receive immediate in-language support from a friendly agent.
