Show the total rising live.

A number climbing on a big screen does something no speech can: it makes generosity visible. PledgesDone turns any projector into a live fundraising display — every pledge lands on screen the second it’s made.

Money goes straight to your Stripe account PledgesDone never holds donor funds No percentage fees

A fundraising thermometer the room can feel.

The moment a guest pledges, the total ticks up on the projector and their first name glows on screen — "Aisha K. — $500". The next table sees it. The next hand goes up. That’s not decoration; that’s how live rooms raise more.

The display runs in any web browser — plug a laptop into the projector, open the link, and you’re live. No apps, no hardware, no AV technician.

  • Real-time total, goal progress and donor recognition
  • First-name-only donor privacy, always
  • Runs full-screen in any browser on any projector or TV

More than a number.

When a challenge launches, the display becomes a scoreboard. When the auction opens, it becomes the bidding stage. One screen carries the whole night — welcome, appeal, challenge, auction, final total.

Between moments, the display celebrates: milestones reached, matching gifts unlocked, the goal within reach.

Designed for the back row.

Big type, high contrast, and motion that draws the eye without stealing the moment. Guests at the furthest table read the total at a glance — and the MC always knows exactly where the room stands.

Live fundraising display ideas

Part of a complete live fundraising system.

The display is powered by the same live pledge capture, pledge management and automated follow-up that runs the rest of your event — so the number on screen is always the true number in your records.

Questions, answered.

What do we need to run the live display?

Any projector, TV or LED wall with a web browser — plug in a laptop, open your event’s display link full-screen, and you’re live. No special hardware or software.

How fast do pledges appear on screen?

Instantly. The moment a guest submits a pledge from their phone, the total updates and their first name appears on the display in real time.

Do donors’ full names appear on the screen?

No. The display shows first name and last initial only — "Michael P." — so donors are celebrated without their full identity being broadcast.

Can we hide the total or individual amounts?

You control what the room sees. Show the rising total, milestones and donor names, or run a quieter display for events where amounts stay private.

Does the display work for auctions and challenges too?

Yes. The same screen becomes a live auction stage and a challenge scoreboard, so one projector carries the entire night.
