What does the trust agreement say about distributions? If the nonprofits were setup to be the ultimate beneficiaries, I assume the money was going to make a brief stop in the trust and then turned over to the beneficiaries to continue to pursue their mission purpose.
As a side note, you have to be an individual to own an IRA so I don't think the nonprofits are going to have much luck creating their own IRAs.
Slava Ukraini!
