The NYT is doing an "expose" or inquiry into the "Not for Profit Orgs"; or as the Hi IQ set calls them: NonGovernment Organizations. Important here is that it appears in the NYT. I'll just add my personal experiences. I have worked for two and been semi-involved in ten to twenty others. All were totally corrupt. The two I worked for were insane. One was a top radio station in the hey day of the Top-40 air play. The salary structure there looted the revenue and salaries were declared after every quarterly inflow of ad dollars. The other was a documentary film company that had "contracts" with government agencies and public television. Again, they not only put every dime into owner salaries they took commission kick backs and everything. NGOs MUST be audited and made accountable. There are 13,000 of them in Israel alone. They are spy agencies in Indonesia and are serving on city councils in the Phillippines. There is more HERE in the San Jose Mercury. One last add, an overwealming number of them do needed charity work, many like the local Missions probably keep no books at all, others hire recovering drunks and crazy people. Keep that in mind. THEY DO FANTASIC WORK.
