      That was my search findings. It makes a little bit of sense - accept government money, you must be transparent to how the money is used.

      Awarding forgotten Eagles

      By RememberSchiff · Posted

      Richard Nuccio started out as a Cub Scout and became a Boy Scout in 1959 in Connecticut. By age 16, he completed all of his requirements for his Eagle rank, however, before he got his board of review in 1962, his scoutmaster transferred. His troop later folded. "That really kind of upset my mother," Nuccio said. More including mention of Belated Eagle Application at source. Good read with photos. Surprised he found old documents and sash. https://www.fox6now.com/news/78-year-old-wisconsin-eagle-scout Scout Salute,

      Is this the Chicago Tribune and College of DuPage case? https://www.peoriamagazine.com/archive/ibi_article/2016/increased-exposure-nonprofit-records-under-foia/ https://law.justia.com/cases/illinois/court-of-appeals-second-appellate-district/2017/2-16-0274.html Albeit a cursory check... but quick reading indicates private non-profit info subject to FOI might be restricted to Government contracts. I'm interested because I've always thought that many non-profits would do well to be more transparent... particularly BSA Councils.

      Non profits in Illinois have already been legally forced to comply with FOIA requests. A 501c3 in the Chicago area fought this and lost the court case. Due to the case, articles and memos have been sent to 501c3s that we need to review these requests closely if we get them.  I am the head of a 501c3 and I have personally been been made aware of this situation. I have been advised to comply if possible to save legal headaches. Other 501c3 groups around here have been getting the same advice recently. The kicker of this whole deal is if you do not comply and lose the case, your organization is responsible for the costs of both parties.
