“AI can remove the paperwork drudgery that too often accompanies applying for aid. Our approach is to use technology in ways that uphold human dignity, strengthen trust and help agencies serve people with greater speed and fairness,” said Brittany Christenson, CEO of AidKit. “This recognition affirms our approach to responsible AI use aimed at transforming how communities receive critical benefits. We’re excited to accelerate the next generation of AI tools that help governments and nonprofits serve people better.”
AidKit’s approach to AI employs human-in-the-loop decision-making, rigorous bias testing, privacy safeguards, multilingual access and energy-use tracking to set a national standard for accountable AI in public benefits delivery. AidKit won its Globee® Award based on two real-world examples:
LA Region Small Business and Worker Relief Fund: The LA County Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) partnered with AidKit to launch two relief programs within weeks, supporting small businesses and workers impacted by the January 2025 wildfires. AI–powered identity verification enabled secure enrollment even for residents who lost documentation, while AI–driven fraud detection protected funds without delaying legitimate applicants. Geospatial AI mapped CAL FIRE imagery to verify property damage with street–level accuracy. The program safely scaled from $2 million to $23.4 million, supporting thousands of displaced workers and small businesses.
Rx Kids in Michigan: Rx Kids, a Michigan State University program developed in collaboration with the University of Michigan and administered by GiveDirectly, leverages AidKit’s technology platform to qualify, enroll, and pay new and expecting mothers across Michigan. AidKit’s technology provides a secure, robust foundation, with AI thoughtfully used to streamline identity verification, extract and compare text, validate documents, prevent fraud, and support multilingual accessibility. Every AI–assisted workflow keeps a human in the loop, ensuring that partners and program administrators retain full oversight of eligibility decisions and the participant experience.
“The 2025 Globee® Awards for Impact celebrate those who are not just solving problems—they’re improving lives and transforming communities,” said San Madan, president of the Globee® Awards. “These winners are redefining what success looks like by aligning purpose with performance.”
