Integrate DonorsChoose, the leading crowdfunding platform for public school teachers, directly into your AI workflow.

  • Newest Opportunity Tracking — List the most recently posted classroom proposals to identify new funding opportunities across the organization.

How it works

  1. Connect the DonorsChoose integration to your AI assistant.
  2. Authorize using your DonorsChoose API Key (you can use 'DONORSCHOOSE' for public access).
  3. Orchestrate your educational support and project research through intuitive conversation.

Who is this for?

  • Philanthropy Managers — Quickly identify classroom projects in specific regions or subjects for support on the go.
