In some countries they view NGOs with skepticism do to lots of corruption and graft, especially smaller lesser known NGOs.
I treat my donations to organizations like I do giving to homeless people. I give what I can. If I try to figure out what is the best, what are they going to do with the money, how are they going to use it, if they use it in ways that go along with my values, I've spent too much time trying to figure it out.
I try to donate to causes that I believe in on it's face. When I find out that they have issues, corruption, graft, etc. I stop and find another one.
