Newly Deceased Trusts

We convert the individual record to an estate record and then a gift officer or org contact coordinates with the estate as to whether a pledge or ticket purchase will be fulfilled. We are also in a consortium environment, so depending on the individuals relationship with our other organizations, we have a set of procedures we follow to notify all within the consortium.

Just thinking out loud here….but if there are no outstanding pledges or ticket purchases on the record, another option could be to create an estate record for them, affiliate the individual record to it, and then inactivate/mark deceased the original individual record. Then there would be a clear distinction between the transactions before the donors passing and then any contributions received after.

Not sure what you will want to be your best practice, but I hope this gets you started.

What are best practices when you have a donor pass and then you continue receiving money from a trust that they created? Do you continue using the same account and address it to the trust, or create a new account specifically for the trust?

Open to any suggestions, 

Thank You!
