Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. I'm Cynthia Rowland, and this is the fourth in a series of quick tip episodes focusing on the details of state registration of nonprofit corporations. Today, with the help of Joe Hilliard, we will discuss the basic state filing requirements for nonprofit corporations operating in Alaska and Hawaii.
In episode 38, we talked about filing in Delaware and California, which are the most frequently used by our clients, most of whom have a connection with California. Episode 40 focused on the state filings in Nevada and Arizona, and in episode 43, we looked at Washington State and Oregon. We'll work through the rest of the states in future episodes.
