The OJC Fund API Integration
Unlock Donor-Advised Fund Data with Authorized DAF OpenData Services
============================
INTRODUCTION
--------------------
The OJC Fund, operated by the Orthodox Jewish Community Fund, is a registered
501(c)(3) public charity and donor-advised fund platform established in 2008.
It supports more than 8,000 schools, synagogues, and nonprofits across North
America and beyond, serving donors who manage charitable giving through its
mobile app and web portal at ojcfund.org.
For fintech developers, nonprofit finance teams, and wealth advisors, the
ability to programmatically access OJC Fund donor data — balances, grant
recommendations, contribution history, check-book activity — opens powerful
new possibilities for reporting, compliance, and cross-platform integration.
Our studio delivers authorized API integration and protocol-analysis services
for The OJC Fund platform. Whether you need to synchronize donor profiles with
a CRM, automate tax-receipt generation, or build a unified advisor dashboard
across multiple DAF sponsors, the OJC Fund API integration layer transforms
in-app account state into structured, exportable data your systems can consume.
This service is designed for integration buyers: nonprofits seeking grant
clarity, tax practitioners preparing year-end packages, fintech teams building
cross-DAF OpenFinance dashboards, and wealth advisors managing philanthropic
plans for high-net-worth households. Pricing starts from $300, with both
source-code delivery and pay-per-call hosted API billing available.
============================
SUPPORTED API FEATURES
--------------------
The OJC Fund API integration layer covers the full range of donor-advised fund
data surfaces exposed by the OJC platform. Below are the core feature areas
supported through authorized protocol analysis and integration engineering:
------------
Core Feature Overview
------------
• Donor Account Login & Profile APIs
Authenticated session management, multi-factor token refresh, and read/write
access to mailing addresses, phone numbers, email, and linked bank accounts.
Enables CRM synchronization with Salesforce NPSP, HubSpot, and Bloomerang.
• Grant Recommendation APIs
Programmatic submission of grant recommendations to any of the 8,000+
OJC-supported charities, identified by EIN or internal organization ID.
Includes status tracking from submitted through approved to paid, with
idempotency keys and recommendation memo fields.
• Check-Book & OJC Charity Card Data
Order check booklets, query monthly book replenishment status, and pull
check-issuance and card-grant records. Supports donors using OJC's tracked
hand-to-hand check-book product as part of their structured giving cadence.
• Statement Export APIs
Date-ranged donor statement exports in JSON, CSV, and PDF formats. Suitable
for tax-year reporting, IRS Form 8283 substantiation, and CPA hand-off
packages. Covers contributions, grant history, and end-of-period balances.
• Charity Directory Search
Search wrapper over the OJC-vetted organization directory: lookup by EIN,
charity name, NTEE category, or geography. Returns OJC-supported flag,
recent grant volume, and recommended payment rail.
• Reconciliation Webhooks & Event Streaming
Outbound webhook events for grant approval, check clearance, contribution
settlement, and balance change. Each event carries a stable event_id and
occurred_at timestamp, enabling downstream ledgers — QuickBooks, Sage
Intacct, NetSuite — to reconcile DAF activity without repeated polling.
• Investment Allocation Data
Pool allocation percentages and performance data for donor balances under
OJC investment options. Useful for advisor reporting and donor transparency
across diversified philanthropic portfolios.
============================
USE CASES & APPLICATIONS
--------------------
The OJC Fund API integration serves a broad range of professional workflows
in nonprofit finance, wealth management, and charitable giving technology.
Below are the five primary application scenarios:
------------
[1] Year-End Tax-Receipt Pipeline
For high-net-worth donors managing giving across multiple DAFs and family-
office accounts, consolidated annual giving reports are essential.
• Pull contribution history by asset type (cash, stock, mutual funds, bonds)
with fair market value and acquisition date.
• Normalize against IRS Form 8283 fields for non-cash contribution reporting.
• Merge grant recommendation and disbursement data into a single tax-year PDF
and structured JSON ledger ready for the donor's CPA or tax advisor.
• Automatically flag QCD-ineligible transfers (DAFs cannot receive Qualified
Charitable Distributions under SECURE Act 2.0) to prevent misclassification.
------------
[2] CRM Contact-Data Refresh
Nonprofits receiving OJC-recommended grants often struggle with outdated donor
contact information arriving through anonymous DAF channels.
• With explicit donor authorization, push profile changes from OJC into
Salesforce NPSP, HubSpot, or Bloomerang via webhook events.
• Receive address corrections and email updates the same day the donor edits
them inside the OJC app, eliminating returned-mail waste.
• Maintain accurate donor records for acknowledgment letters, event invites,
and stewardship campaigns, replacing stale anonymous DAF grant notices.
------------
[3] Grant-Disbursement Reconciliation
Recipient charity finance teams must match incoming OJC checks with donor
advisories so acknowledgments are accurate and ledgers are clean.
• Match inbound bank deposits to the corresponding OJC grant recommendation
record using the stable recommendation_id reference.
• Trigger automated thank-you letters that reference the originating donor
(where consent allows) instead of an anonymous DAF block entry.
• Integrate check clearance webhook events directly into accounting workflows
to close open grant receivable entries on the day payment clears.
------------
[4] Advisor Dashboard for DAF Accounts
Wealth advisors at firms such as Charles Schwab and Equinum Wealth Management
manage client philanthropic plans across multiple DAF sponsors simultaneously.
• Normalize OJC account data alongside Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable
(DAFgiving360), Daffy, and The Donors Fund into a unified OpenFinance schema.
• Display real-time donor balance, investment allocation, cumulative giving,
and grant cadence in a single consolidated advisor view.
• Support multi-generational family-office philanthropy coordination where
multiple household members maintain separate OJC donor accounts.
------------
[5] Compliance & Audit Trail for IRS Section 4966
Following the November 2023 IRS proposed regulations on Section 4966 taxable
distributions, sponsoring organizations face broader recordkeeping obligations.
• Capture every recommendation lifecycle event — submitted, reviewed,
approved, paid — with donor-advisor identity and fund-manager approval chain.
• Ship events into an immutable WORM log with hashed payloads to support
joint-and-several-liability evidence trails.
• Reconstruct any grant recommendation for IRS examination, reducing audit
preparation time and demonstrating full advisory lineage compliance.
============================
BENEFITS & ADVANTAGES
--------------------
The OJC Fund API integration delivers measurable advantages for every type
of integration buyer in the donor-advised fund ecosystem:
✓ IRS Section 4966 Compliance Ready
Full advisory and approval lineage preserved for every recommendation,
aligned with proposed regulations issued November 2023 and refined through
2024, reducing compliance risk for sponsoring organizations and advisors.
✓ Cross-DAF Normalization
OJC data integrates cleanly alongside Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable,
Daffy, UI Charitable, The Donors Fund, and Chariot DAFpay under a consistent
OpenFinance-style account-transactions-grants schema.
✓ No Upfront Commitment Required
Source code delivery starts from $300 with payment only after delivery upon
satisfaction. A pay-per-call hosted API option provides usage-based billing
with no upfront cost for teams that prefer managed access.
✓ Rapid Integration Timeline
Typical first API delivery in 5 to 12 business days for donor account,
statement, and grant endpoints. Complex multi-tenant or audit-grade pipelines
delivered in 10 to 20 business days depending on scope.
✓ Enterprise-Grade Security & Privacy
TLS 1.3 encryption in transit, tokenization for bank account references, and
data-minimization defaults ensure downstream systems receive only fields with
a documented consumption purpose. HMAC-verified webhooks prevent spoofing.
✓ Runnable Source Code Delivered
Clients receive OpenAPI 3.1 specifications, Python (FastAPI) and Node.js
(Express/TypeScript) source code, a Postman collection, integration test
suite, and a webhook receiver template with HMAC verification.
✓ Access to 8,000+ Charity Directory
The full OJC-vetted organization list — searchable by EIN, name, NTEE
category, and geography — is exposed through the charity directory API,
enabling smart eligibility pre-checks and grant routing workflows.
============================
SUBSCRIPTION PLANS
--------------------
The OJC Fund API integration is available under two billing models designed
to fit different team sizes and integration maturity levels:
------------
Source Code Delivery
------------
Starting from $300, clients receive a complete integration package including
runnable Python and Node.js source code, OpenAPI 3.1 specification, webhook
receiver templates, Postman collections, and compliance notes covering IRS
Section 4966 proposed regulations and donor-data retention requirements.
Payment is made after delivery upon satisfaction — no upfront commitment.
Engagement typically follows four phases: scope confirmation, protocol
analysis and API design (2 to 5 business days), build and compliance review
(3 to 8 business days), and documentation and test delivery (1 to 2 business
days). Total timeline: 5 to 15 business days for standard integrations.
------------
Pay-Per-Call Hosted API
------------
For teams that prefer managed infrastructure, the hosted API option provides
direct access to OJC Fund integration endpoints billed on a per-call basis.
No upfront cost, no minimum commitment. Suitable for lighter workloads, proof-
of-concept projects, or teams without dedicated API infrastructure. Sandbox
access and usage-based billing details are available on request.
Both plans include NDA availability, donor-authorization record templates, and
a compliance hand-off package covering data-minimization guidance and IRS
reporting alignment.
============================
