Just make a checklist somewhere:

* DONE Notify people of my current address
- [X] Y
- [X] Z
- [X] W

When your address changes, change the todo state to TODO and do M-x
org-reset-checkbox-state-subtree to uncheck all the boxes.

Of course, you still have to remember to do that, but don't have to
remember /who/ you have to notify (because you can add to this list
whenever you give your address to someone new).

If that does not accomplish your goal, please provide more detailed
explanation of what Org should do to help you in this situation.
