FAQs

Nonprofit Charts FAQs

Most annual reports show donations or revenue over time with a line or bar chart, how funds were spent across programs with a pie or donut chart, and program outcomes such as people served or meals delivered with a bar chart. A gauge chart works well for progress toward a fundraising goal, and a caption with a cited source tells readers where each number comes from.

Create a gauge chart from your donations column and set the Target to your fundraising goal, so donors see at a glance how close you are. To compare several campaigns, use a grouped gauge chart with one ring per campaign, or start from the Fundraising Campaign Goals template. Connect the chart to a Google Sheet to keep the total current during a campaign.

Use a pie or donut chart of spending by category, such as programs, fundraising and administration, and turn on data labels to show the percentage of each slice. A clear breakdown of spending helps donors and grantmakers see how much of each dollar reaches your programs.

Upload your program data and chart outcomes over time with a line or bar chart. Add a trend line to show growth, annotations to highlight milestones, and a caption with your data source. Export the chart as a PDF, PNG or SVG file to place it in your application.
