Bill > HB2170

This bill, known as the Donor Intent Protection Act, provides legal recourse for individual charitable donors when the recipient charitable organization does not follow the donor-imposed restrictions on an endowment fund that contains only the donor's gifted property. The bill defines key terms, such as "charitable organization," "donor," and "endowment agreement," and outlines the process for a donor to file a complaint if the organization violates the donor-imposed restrictions. The court can order various remedies, including future compliance, restitution, accounting, and modification or release of the restrictions. The bill also allows a charitable organization to seek a judicial declaration of rights and duties related to the endowment agreement.
