Dashboard Overview

The admin dashboard at app.miranda.foundation is the central hub for managing your foundation. It provides at-a-glance metrics on donations, donor engagement, and upcoming tasks.

Dashboard metrics

The dashboard data comes from GET /api/dashboard/metrics. Here is what each metric represents:

Giving overview

Metric	Description
Total raised	Sum of all succeeded donation amounts (in cents)
Donor count	Distinct contacts who have made at least one succeeded donation
New donors this month	Distinct contacts with their first succeeded donation in the current calendar month
Average gift	Mean donation amount across all succeeded donations
Recurring count	Distinct contacts with active recurring donations

All amounts are stored in cents. The frontend converts to display currency (e.g., 5000 cents = $50.00).
