If you are part of the organization(and its dirty,) you could donate your legit earnings for the year to it and pay yourself back through the organization or just keep it in the organization funds?
      Only a small % of people are in a position to do that, but the major concern is how much of the money a organization gets actually goes to a cause, the legal minimum is 10%. You never really know.
