The Benefit Trustees for Charitable Purposes Act provides a framework for creating and managing irrevocable trusts, particularly aimed at benefiting the Grantor's children and grandchildren. This form outlines the responsibilities and powers of the Trustee, including the distribution of trust assets, management of investments, and the provision of support to beneficiaries for their health and education. Key features include provisions for the division of the trust into separate accounts for each child and their descendants, the right for grandchildren to withdraw portions of their trusts at a designated age, and spendthrift provisions that protect the trust assets from creditors.

Attorneys, partners, and legal assistants will find this form essential in estate planning and charitable giving, as it aids in the establishment of trusts that comply with legal standards while serving the best interests of beneficiaries. It furthermore ensures that charitable intentions and family support are honored through clear directives and responsibilities assigned to the Trustee.
