If you are that close, just let your supervisors know and ask for work to ensure you hit the target. At my BigLaw firm, there is no wiggle room.
A2 is right here. Go hunt those last few hours.
Agreed with the folks above — just reach out to a supervisor (or two) to try and make sure you hit it!
Agree with A2 and C1 - it’s an all or nothing deal at my firm too. You either make your hours and get a bonus, or you miss your hours (by 1 hour or 100 doesn’t matter) and you don’t get a bonus.

First year like few months in or 1+ year in?
If the former, it really doesn’t matter.
If the latter, tell everyone and beg for those last few hours.
Do pro bono hours count towards your yearly goal?
Agree - pick up the phone and let people know! No reason to miss target by a few hours (especially if your bonus is all or nothing). You can do it!
