Donation Can is your blogs PayPal tip-jar with a twist. Instead of just a little Donate Now button, like the plethora of other donation-based plugins, Donation Can makes reaching your donation goals a public affair.
The goal metaphor within Donation Can simply represents a financial objective for your donations. For example, one goal might be "Help Buy Me a Mac" with the goal target amount of $500. The Donation Can widget will display your goal's purpose and progress and a link to Donate Now. As readers donate, Donation Can tracks how close you get to your goal and displays a progress bar.
