From NPSP to Agentforce Nonprofit: What Comes Next for Nonprofits on Salesforce

Salesforce is no longer building on NPSP. So in this episode, we unpack the major shift happening in the nonprofit Salesforce ecosystem with Agentforce Nonprofit and what it really means for organizations still using NPSP.

From data migration and reporting challenges to real-world AI use cases, this conversation breaks down the opportunities (and concerns) in a practical, no-hype way. If you’re wondering whether it’s time to rethink your tech stack—or how to do it without disrupting your mission—this episode will give you a clear place to start.

Nonprofit Data Visualization: Showing Impact Instead of Just Telling It

Long data sets are hard to comprehend. Charts, graphs, and maps are not. That's why data visualization is a key tool for nonprofits to demonstrate impact to funders, stakeholders, and the community. In this episode, Alex Montgomery, Senior Director of Impact & Advocacy at Chinese American Service League, reveals how CASL harnessed the power of data visualization to spearhead a data-sharing effort with other organizations serving the Asian-American community. This program called Change InSight is increasing visibility for the AANHPI community to help increase funding and support for this rapidly growing demographic. Provisio Senior Data Analyst Josefine Hansen joins as well to reveal what nonprofits must do to implement data visualization for themselves.
