Fundraising Goal Tracker Template

A real spreadsheet for tracking a fundraising campaign against its goal, not a static thermometer graphic. Enter your fundraising goal, the amount raised so far, and your average donation size, and it calculates the amount remaining, the percent of goal reached, and — the number campaigns rarely calculate directly — how many more donors at that average size it would take to close the gap.

Fundraising Goal$50,000.00
Amount Raised So Far$32,000.00
Amount Remaining$18,000.00
Percent of Goal Reached64%
Average Donation Size$85.00
Donors Still Needed211.8

Green rows calculate automatically from the values above them — change any number in FLYNT Sheets and they update.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a full donor management or CRM system?
No — this tracks progress toward one campaign goal, it doesn't manage individual donor records, contact history, or receipts. If you need full donor relationship management, that's a job for dedicated nonprofit CRM software. This template does one thing: turn a goal and a running total into a real progress picture.
Can I track more than one campaign at once?
Yes — it's a real spreadsheet. Duplicate the sheet per campaign to track several fundraising goals side by side.
Is this free to use?
Yes, on FLYNT's free plan — no credit card required.
