funding goal

Campaign's monetary aim

A funding goal is the target amount of money a campaign or project aims to raise.

The term is most associated with crowdfunding platforms, where creators set a specific dollar figure they need to reach: We set our funding goal at $50,000 for the documentary.

Some platforms operate on all-or-nothing models—if you don't hit the funding goal, you get nothing.
