The State Board of Education may accept the administration of property, money or other thing of value donated in trust for the benefit of any public school of the state upon such conditions as may be acceptable to the donor and the State Board of Education, but no undertaking entered into by the State Board of Education with such donor shall bind the state to pay any public moneys to anyone. Nothing hereunder shall prevent the State Board of Education from undertaking payments to persons out of the proceeds derived from such trust funds as a condition of the acceptance of a donation for the benefit of such school or schools. All trust funds administered under the provisions of this chapter may be required by the State Board of Education to pay the expenses of administering the same.
