Technology should amplify human compassion, not replace it. That's the principle that guides everything I do.
AI Strategist for Social Impact | Founder, LeNoir Foundation | Forbes EQ Contributor | Keynote Speaker | Helping Nonprofits Amplify Their Mission Through Technology
As founder of LeNoir Foundation – winner of Best Digital Literacy & Educational Access NPO 2025, UK. I transform how charitable organisations operate through strategic AI solutions.
With over half a decade of developing AI systems for major corporations, I recognised that nonprofits doing the world's most vital work were being left behind by the digital revolution. This realisation sparked my mission to make AI implementation ethical, practical, and accessible for social impact organisations.
​
I've helped 20+ nonprofits across three continents streamline their operations, increasing efficiency whilst preserving the human-centred values that define charitable work. From local community groups to international development agencies, each organisation receives bespoke AI strategies that amplify their mission without compromising their principles.
​
As a keynote speaker and workshop facilitator, I address nonprofit conferences, universities, and corporate events, translating complex AI concepts into actionable solutions for leaders who need results, not theory.
Through LeNoir Foundation, I continue pioneering AI-powered social impact, particularly focusing on educational access in underserved communities worldwide.

"AI doesn't replace the heart of nonprofit work; it amplifies it by freeing passionate people to focus on what they do best, changing lives." - James Jay Mawaka
Most nonprofits are tackling 2025 challenges with 1990s processes.
​
Whilst Fortune 500 companies invest millions in AI transformation, the organisations doing the world's most vital work – feeding the hungry, housing the homeless, educating underserved communities – remain stuck with outdated systems and overwhelmed teams.
​
That's where I come in.
I'm democratising AI for social good, showing nonprofit leaders how to ethically implement technology that amplifies impact without losing their human touch.
​
What I Do:
-
Strategic AI implementation for nonprofit operations
-
Grant writing optimisation through intelligent automation
-
Donor discovery via predictive analytics
-
Impact measurement systems that tell compelling stories
-
Ethical AI training for teams
​
My Approach: Technology should serve humanity, not replace it. Every solution passes three tests: Does it increase human connection? Does it amplify mission impact? Does it free time for what matters most?
Client Collaborations
I take pride in my collaborations and relationships with esteemed clients and partners, reflecting a commitment to delivering exceptional results and fostering long-term success.
