# How do I set a donation goal for my Giving Circle’s cycle?

Setting a donation goal helps your Giving Circle stay focused and motivated throughout the cycle. Here’s how to update it:

**Go to your Admin Dashboard.**  
From your Giving Circle page, click the “Manage Group” button.

**Select "Donation cycles" from the menu.**  
Use the left-hand sidebar to open your list of donation cycles.

**Choose the cycle you want to update.**  
Find the correct cycle, then click the three-dot icon (⋮) at the end of the row.

**Click "Edit Donation Cycle."**  
This opens a pop-up window where you can make changes.

**Set your donation goal.**  
Scroll to the “Donation Goal & Days to Go” section and enter your goal amount (in USD) in the “$0.00” field.

**Click "Save."**  
Your donation goal will now be visible on your Giving Circle page.
