There are some borderline cases:
The Salvation Army does a lot of good feeding and housing people that really have no where to go. They seem to somehow be Affliated with Goodwill, an organization which helps really poor people by offering donated goods for cheap resale. But the Salvation Army has an outdated sexual orientation view, although I have never heard of them turning away a needy person because of sexual orientation, at least not the local one.
People don't realize that the YMCA/YWCA are religious organizations, though that should be clear by pronouncing the full names. I used to have a membership for when I was in a big city. Their administrators seem to be religious. But I have not seen cases where I could say that I noticed discrimination, they seem to serve whoever come to their facilities.
The groups with the mega-churches and leaders that have mansions and private jets, or the ones that are commenting on and attacking the rights of other members of society, are the ones that I look sideways at, and their number among evangelicals seem to be growing, not shrinking as it should be.
