A Planning Tool

Event Budget Calculator

Enter your fundraising goal and guest count, then see what your sponsorship levels, ticket prices and giving tiers need to be to hit it.

What's Inside

Set Your Goal

Start with the number you actually need to raise, then tell us roughly who's in the room.

Check Your Starting Percentages

These starting percentages reflect typical events — adjust them if your event leans differently.

Work Down Each Section

Every section is pre-filled with a suggested starting point: sponsorship levels, ticket prices, giving tiers.

Watch the Running Total

Once you scroll past the first step, a bar at the top tracks your projected revenue against your goal as you go.
