I don't know whether Charity Navigator is legit or not, but assuming they are then Freedom Alliance is a VERY WELL RUN CHARITY.
Correction to the previous poster, they use a 4 star ranking system and Freedom Alliance gets 4 out of 4 which is the best ranking.
Overall Rating (65.65)
Organizational Efficiency
Program Expenses 81.5% (
Amount that goes to benefit charity recipients - higher is better)
Administrative Expenses 4.8% (

Fundraising Expenses 13.5% (
More overhead - lower is better)
Fundraising Efficiency $0.09 (

It would appear this article is total BS.
