  Hi there.

  Your best option is to utilize Google Docs. If you can maintain a spreadsheet in Google Docs, you can embed code into your WordPress.com site that will display a graph. When you update your Google Doc, the graph image will update on your site.

  Once you create a Google Doc spreadsheet chart you’re happy with, you can publish it as an image. Then. you’ll add the HTML code for the image into your WordPress.com post/page/sidebar.

  If you’ve never created a Google Docs spreadsheet graph before, here’s some handy info:

  I hope this helps! Best wishes to you.

  Well, thank YOU. I didn’t actually realize that a graph could be embedded until I experimented because of your ticket. So, I got to learn something new, too. I’m happy to help, if you get stuck with anything.

  Good luck with the graph and the fundraising :)
