How do you define functional such that the only way to identify it is to work there?

The Australian "National Heart Foundation" for instance has killed a lot of people, fucked up shit.

But people love them cause they are functional. Lot's of PR.

The op topic (On topic to the parent link) was they are very broken internally. So much so they fail the the cause of good.

They do, and they don't, on topic is how good they are, is 500 million the red cross spent on 6 houses true, and right. What's the real story. Are NPO that bad really?

I don't think they ever implied they "worked internally in all of these and more".

"I know" would imply that, and "I could go on" implies more. If not, experience with those organisations is not as close as OP.
