The State Auditor shall review and audit, if necessary, the financial structure and activities of each organization receiving contributions and make a report to the General Assembly of the review or audit, when requested to do so by the State Fiscal Accountability Authority. For purposes of this section, the procurement of goods or services is not considered a contribution of funds."
