Good Afternoon Everyone,
I hope through all the vast experience on this list serve, someone will have some guidance for the below situation. I have not had a client with this situation before and I'm a little rusty on conditional gifts in Wills. 

HC gives most of the estate to multiple charities. One of those charities is nominated to act as personal representative. So far, so good. HC asked if there a way to make the gift to the charity conditioned on actually acting as the PR. Basically, what is the incentive for the charity to act as the PR if they get the money anyway. 

I value all comments and guidance.
Thank you in advance for your time! Regards,
Lisa Kay
