Free, open-source calculators and guides that help supporters of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library — and their advisors — find the smartest way to give. Every tool drops onto any web page with one line of JavaScript.
Seven questions that point a visitor to the right giving method, with reasons, links, and questions for their advisor. Built for the top of the Support page.
North Dakota’s 40% state credit for endowment and planned gifts: credit size, how much a donor can use, the federal-deduction interplay, and net cost.
Eligibility check, RMD estimate, and a side-by-side of giving from an IRA versus withdrawing and giving cash.
Give shares or sell-then-give: capital gains avoided, deduction value, net cost, and transfer steps.
Every-year giving versus bunching two or three years into one, with the new ½%-of-AGI floor built in.
Sponsor-specific grant steps, a copyable grant recommendation, and a DAF-or-direct decision helper.
Builds sample will or trust language — percentage, residuary, amount, or asset — with the Foundation’s legal details.
Account-by-account instructions for naming the Foundation as a beneficiary and which assets are best left to charity.
The “I’ve included the Library in my plans” form. Embeds a DonorPerfect form when configured; otherwise a pre-filled email.
Federal estate tax exposure, how a charitable bequest changes it, and a flag for the 18 states with their own death taxes.
Educational illustrations of a gift annuity, unitrust, and annuity trust using ACGA rates and the current §7520 rate.
What a gift becomes with an employer match, and how to claim it.
A slider that turns a monthly amount into yearly and multi-year impact and links to the monthly giving form.
Pick a gift type and see when it counts, the start-by date for this year, and what to do — checks, stock, QCDs, DAFs, wires, property.
Internal drafting aids that share the same figures and legal details. Not linked from donor-facing pages.
Staff tool: IRS-compliant acknowledgment letters for every gift type, plus the North Dakota endowment qualification letter donors attach to Schedule ND-1QEC.
Each tool ends with three buttons: Download advisor summary (PDF) — a one-page recap of what was entered, what the tool showed, the notes, and the questions to bring to an advisor, with the Library’s legal details; Print; and Copy link to this scenario, which puts the inputs in the URL so a donor can send their exact scenario to an advisor — or development can send a prospect a link that opens a calculator already filled in (for example ?qcd.age=75&qcd.gift=20000). Several tools also produce paperwork: a QCD request letter, a broker transfer letter, a draft IRS Form 8283, a pre-filled Schedule ND-1QEC, and a signable Heritage Society statement of intent. Everything is generated in the browser; nothing a donor types is sent anywhere.
Each tool is a single JavaScript file that carries its own styles, the current tax figures, and the Foundation’s details. Paste one snippet where you want the tool to appear. Several tools can share a page.
