I seem to remember that the Orphan Aid Society is a highly legitimate organization.
But you can check for yourself
Every not for profit organization in the USA is listed at: http://www.guidestar.org/index.jsp
There you can search for every not for profit organization (even Ukrainian emigre one) from the Shevchenko Scientific Society to the Ukrainian Studies Fund to every Plast kurin with its own separate EIN number.
This site already has the IRS statements of many organizations and eventually you will be able to find all of them as required by law. There you can find their assets, their income, their donations, and who signs for them. In addition they list their mission and their officers.
