Gift and Financial Goal Bar
The gift and financial goal bars allow you to display progress bars to show how close you are to your goal. You can turn these on or off on individual forms, prefill amounts if you have already started fundraising for that goal, and even embed the progress bars on your website.
Gifts Bar
Number of Gifts
This is the total number of donations you are trying to get.
Starting Amount
If you are only counting gift made using this form, leave the starting amount empty.
If you want to take into consideration gifts generated by other sources, like maybe donations made on your website through traditional means or board members writing a check, you can prefill the starting amount field. In the example above, this progress bar would start at 142 gifts made out of the goal of 500.
Starting Date
The bar will only count gifts made starting on or after the selected date. This is optional, but would if used if you want to exclude donations made during testing, before you had a goal, or maybe you want to reset your goal each month or year.
