No obligation to notify the charity in advance (though many appreciate it)
No legal requirement. However, many charities appreciate being notified so they can thank you and plan for future funding. It's entirely your choice.
Yes. You can split your charitable gifts between as many charities as you like. Exit State lets you add multiple charities and specify amounts or percentages for each.
If a charity ceases to exist, the gift typically goes to a similar charity or back into your residuary estate (depending on how your Will is worded). Exit State includes fallback clauses to handle this.
Absolutely. You decide how much goes to charity and how much goes to family. Most people leave the majority to loved ones and a smaller percentage to charity. It's your Will — you're in control.
