We have set aside a fixed proportion of our estate to go to charity. However we have not specified which charity, giving complete discretion to our children to make that decision, bearing in mind their knowledge of the individual charities or types of charity we support at the time of our deaths.
We revise our will roughly every 10 - 15 years and a lot can happen in that time and we may have stopped supporting one charity and chosen to support a different one, or we may have moved the main field of our charitable giving from, say, helping the homeless, to helping loneliness in older people and we would want our charitable legacy to reflect that
It will also stop my children from being hounded by the charity specifically named in the will, who can sometimes appear to be a bit too anxious to get their donation if their are any delays in settling the estate.
