All Federal, State, and local governmental contributions of any type (including financing, cash, donations, as well as information, goods, equipment and services even if provided at zero cost) to non-governmental organizations (NGO’s) shall be limited to the lesser of 2% of their gross revenue or a maximum of $100,000. If the contribution is in the form of information, goods, equipment, services or other intangibles, the value of such shall be calculated based on current market rates.
Should this limit be exceeded, the NGO will immediately be subject to the same accountability and disclosures, including FOIA, as any other governmental agency and the excess funds shall be returned to the US Treasury within 60 days of discovery. Failure to do so shall result in the NGO being barred from receiving any government contributions for five years. Furthermore, any NGO that employs or otherwise retains a manager or director of an NGO that was previously barred from receiving government contributions, shall likewise be barred from receiving government contributions for five years from the date the manager or director was retained by the NGO.
Each NGO shall file an annual report with the US Inspector General detailing all contributions from all governmental agencies and how those contributions were invested, distributed or otherwise disposed of by the NGO. The report shall identify the managers and directors of the NGO. Failure to file or failure to accurately report the totality of goverment contributions shall result in civil and criminal penalties for the managers and directors of the NGO. Civil penalites shall include liability for the return of funds to the US Treasury being the responsibility of the managers and directors of the NGO. Should intent to conceal government contributions be proven in a court of law, criminal penalties, up to and including imprisonment shall be enforced and a lifetime ban on the managers or directors from being involved in any other NGO receiving government contributions shall be enforced.
I prefer for the government not to be allowed to fund NGOs 
I would add that if NGOs are required that a law be enacted to restrict their use to specifc circumstances and severly restrict the number of those cases, require comptetitive bidding, which is avaible to the public, requires transparency of how taxpayers funds are used, regular independent evaluations (no auto renewals) to ensure that those funds are being used as they are granted and make NGOs records publicly available
