§ 452.110. Bequests to fund; fund and contributions for charitable purposes; gifts not invalidated by uncertainty of beneficiaries; fund not subject to rule against perpetuities
1. A cemetery authority which has established an endowment care fund may take, receive
and hold as a part of or incident to the fund any property, real, personal or mixed,
bequeathed, devised, granted, given or otherwise contributed to it for its endowment
care fund. 2. The endowment care fund and all payments or contributions to it are hereby expressly
permitted as and for charitable and eleemosynary purposes. Endowment care is a provision for the discharge of a duty due from the persons contributing
to the persons interred and to be interred in the cemetery, and a provision for the
benefit and protection of the public by preserving and keeping cemeteries from becoming
unkept and places of reproach and desolation in the communities in which they are
situated. 3. No payment, gift, grant, bequest or other contribution for general endowment care
is invalid by reason of any indefiniteness or uncertainty of the persons designated
as beneficiaries, nor is the fund or any contribution to it invalid as violating any
law against perpetuities or the suspension of the power of alienation of title to
property.
