Take Small Steps Towards Your Goal

Break down the total amount you want to raise into weekly or monthly goals rather than giving it a long-term deadline. For example, raise a tenth of the total amount in a week. This will ensure you’re on track or even exceeding the total fundraising amount you hope to raise.
