# Fundraising thermometer maker

Show how close your appeal is to its goal. Type the target and what you have raised so far, choose a style, and download the graphic for a newsletter, a website or a noticeboard poster.

## Making the graphic

Type amounts the way you write them: 5,000, 5000 or 2.5k all work, and a decimal comma such as 1.250,50 is understood too. The currency menu formats every figure with your browser's number settings, or choose no currency to count anything else: volunteers, books, trees planted. The thermometer fills to the share raised; once you pass the goal it stays full and says the goal is reached, with the real percentage.

## Which file to use

PNG works almost everywhere, including email newsletters and social posts; it is saved at twice the size for sharp screens. SVG stays crisp at any size and suits websites and print shops. Print puts the graphic on a page on its own, ready for a noticeboard. Update the raised figure and download again as donations come in; your settings are remembered in this browser.

## Questions

**Can I show a goal in another currency?**

Yes. Pick any currency in the list; amounts are formatted with its usual symbol and decimals, so yen have none and euros may show the symbol after the number in some languages.

**Why does the PNG use a different font?**

Downloaded files use common system fonts so they look the same on any computer, without needing this site's fonts installed.

**Is the thermometer accurate to the penny?**

The fill is drawn to the exact share of the goal. Labels round to whole amounts unless you enter cents.
