“I give to Obesity Action Coalition, a nonprofit corporation currently located at 4511 North Himes Avenue Suite 250, Tampa, FL 33614, or its successor thereto, _________ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property]. This gift should be used for (state purpose) if and so long as Obesity Action Coalition determines that the need exists. If Obesity Action Coalition shall determine at the outset or at a later time that the need does not exist, or no longer exists, or for some reason it is not possible (or prudent) to administer my gift as originally intended, then Obesity Action Coalition may, in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, direct the use of my bequest for a purpose related as closely as possible to that stated above.”
