Auditor Says Most Nonprofits Complying

RALEIGH — Hundreds of state-funded nonprofit organizations that had been late filing required reports are now in compliance with the law, State Auditor Les Merritt said Monday. Merritt notified about 1,100 organizations in April that they had been late filing reports. By Friday almost 900 of them had sent the reports in, he said in a press release. After the mailings last month, Merritt’s staff followed up with phone calls explaining the state's reporting requirements, he said.
