You can show the total amount raised and a progress bar on your GiveNow cause page. These help donors see how your campaign is tracking and can encourage giving. Both settings are found on the Display tab on your cause page in OrgHQ.
Enable the total amount raised and progress bar
- Log in to OrgHQ.
- Go to Manage causes, under Cause & donations in the left-hand menu.
- Select Edit for the cause you want to update, then go to the Display tab.
- In the Donation information section, select Show total amount raised.
- If you also want to show a progress bar, select Show progress bar and enter a dollar value in the Target amount field.
- Select Save to apply your changes.
Note: The target amount is for display purposes only. Reaching the target will not prevent further donations from being made.
Include offline donations in the total
If your organisation has received donations outside of the GiveNow platform (for example, cash or direct bank transfers), you can include them in your displayed total. In the Donation information section, enter the amount in the Amount raised offline field.
You can also use this field to subtract amounts. For example, if a donor has requested that a $500 donation be redirected to a different cause, enter "-$500".
For more information, see How do I add offline donations to my cause?
Reset the amount for a new fundraising period
At the start of a new fundraising period, you can reset the displayed amount by adjusting the Amount raised offline field. For example, if your cause has raised $10,000 on GiveNow and you want to start fresh, enter "-$10,000" in the offline field to bring the displayed total back to zero. You can also update the Target amount to reflect your new goal.
