This document discusses non-charitable purpose trusts (NCPT), which establish a trust for purposes that are not considered charitable under law. NCPT are generally invalid due to issues of enforceability, uncertainty of purpose, excessive delegation of testamentary power, and perpetuity. However, some exceptional NCPT have been upheld, such as those for the care of specific animals, building and maintaining tombs/monuments, and fox hunting. Unincorporated associations can also be valid beneficiaries of NCPT if the gift is made to the members of the association.
