What happens if a campaign does not reach its fundraising goal?

Asked a year ago
If a campaign on Causes.com does not reach its fundraising goal, there are a few possible outcomes. Firstly, the campaign may be considered unsuccessful and all funds raised will still be disbursed to the designated cause or organization. Even though the goal wasn't met, the funds can still make a positive impact. Alternatively, the campaign creator may choose to extend the fundraising duration in the hopes of reaching the goal. Additionally, they can adjust the goal to a more achievable amount to secure partial funding. Causes.com also provides the option to continue fundraising for an extended period, even after the campaign ends, to continue gathering support. Ultimately, regardless of whether a campaign reaches its goal or not, Causes.com aims to ensure that funds contribute in some way toward addressing the cause at hand.
