Live webinar: Cybersecurity for social impact organizations
Register
“The AI revolution in the impact sector is not coming, it's already here. In 2025, we made a deliberate choice: to stop preparing for the future and start building it. We restructured our programs, deepened our partnerships, and raised the bar for what it means to help social impact organizations become AI-native. The changemakers we work with already have interventions that work. To scale their impact, they need more than tools. They need the strategy, the skills, the mindset and the right people beside them. That is exactly what we built this year.”
Tech To The Rescue is a global nonprofit that helps social impact organizations scale what already works — using technology and AI. We connect changemakers with pro-bono tech partners, experts, and funders, and support them through the full journey from AI readiness to real-world implementation.
A world where every social impact organisation has access to — and the capability to use — the technology they need to tackle the world's problems.
We enable social impact organizations to multiply the impact of proven interventions through effective technology.

12 of 37 respondents said the program already helped their fundraising, even pre-launch.
“I found the program highly valuable, offering a great opportunity to learn new things and strengthen our existing knowledge. The interaction with other participants was also very enriching, as we learned a lot from their experiences. This opportunity provided us with the tools and perspective we need to effectively integrate artificial intelligence into our project. I especially appreciated the positive energy from both the organizers and participants throughout the program, and I hope we can be considered for future programs or opportunities to present our projects."
In 2025, our collaboration with Lenovo came to life: Lenovo chose to offer additional support to 12 organizations selected from the AI for Changemakers program. The two impact stories below are proof of what that partnership made possible.

“I've seen what happens when a nonprofit finally gets the support it deserves. The energy shifts. People who fought for years with limited resources suddenly see a clear path forward. That's what AI4Changemakers creates — not a moment of progress, but lasting change in how an organisation operates and grows."
Launched in Q4 2025, the program supports ambitious changemakers in transforming proven social interventions into scalable solutions through holistic AI enablement.

“The Scaling Program is built on everything we've learned about what social impact organizations truly need — a solid theory of change, holistic enablement, pro-bono tech partners who are genuinely invested, and impact measurement that holds us accountable from day one. I cannot wait to see what this cohort builds. This is what responsible AI looks like in practice."

Tech To The Rescue is more than its programs — it's a global movement of engineers, designers, and product thinkers choosing to put their skills behind changemakers. That's what sets us apart, and what's setting a new standard for what's possible when technology is built for good.
tech companies from 63 countries joined the pro-bono movement.

In collaboration with AI for Good / ITU, we co-launched the inaugural edition of the AI for Good Impact Awards — spotlighting the best AI-powered solutions making a positive impact, with a special category dedicated to pro-bono collaborations. Jacek's keynote on AI-Native Impact was one of the highlights of the event and sparked an engaging conversation around how AI is used, built, and evaluated.
From op-eds to global stages, we showed up where the future of AI for social good is being defined.
We look forward to continuing this work — helping impact organizations with proven interventions scale with AI, responsibly. We believe in the power of partnerships to make the impossible, possible.
We're looking for partners ready to scale what works — through funding, technology, and shared ambition.
