What would you like to do next?
Turn the remaining balance into a testable scenario
Enter the fundraising goal, amount already raised, an assumed average future gift and expected donor conversion percentage. The calculator shows progress, remaining balance, whole gifts needed and the prospect count implied by the entered conversion. Both assumptions remain visible so conservative and optimistic cases can be compared.
Do not treat assumptions as a forecast
Gift size and response vary by audience, channel, timing, relationship and campaign purpose. Prospect counts do not replace consent, privacy, truthful communication or fundraising-law compliance. Segment the plan, monitor actual results and update the assumptions instead of presenting the arithmetic as guaranteed revenue.

The remaining goal is divided by the entered average gift and rounded up.
How are prospects estimated?
Required gifts are divided by the entered donor conversion rate.
Is the result a revenue forecast?
No. Average gift and conversion are user-entered planning assumptions.
