(1) This section distinguishes between:
(a) Enforceable trusts held by a nonprofit corporation, including a charitable corporation, governed under chapter
11.110 RCW; and
(b) Gift restrictions whose terms may be enforced and are subject to modification under this chapter or other applicable law.
(2) A gift to a nonprofit corporation, including a charitable corporation, does not create a charitable trust unless:
(a) The donor expresses an intent to create a charitable trust; and
(b) The trustee, which may be a charitable corporation, agrees in the form of a record to act as trustee of that trust according to its terms.
(3) Giving a gift to a nonprofit corporation, including a charitable corporation, that is: (a) Accepted by the corporation; (b) not in trust; and (c) subject to material restrictions or requirements contained in a gift instrument transfers complete ownership to the nonprofit corporation. The nonprofit corporation is bound by the material restrictions or requirements contained in the gift instrument.
(4) A nonprofit corporation complies with a term contained in a gift instrument if the nonprofit corporation reasonably complies with all material restrictions or requirements contained in the term, or, when appropriate under the facts and circumstances, seeks modification in accordance with RCW
24.03A.190.
(5) If the nonprofit corporation fails to comply with any material restriction or requirement contained in a gift instrument and fails to seek a modification in accordance with RCW
24.03A.190, then the attorney general may bring a proceeding to enforce the terms of the gift instrument.
