NPR doesn't actually receive direct federal funding but instead gets grants and such. But even then that just amounts to 2% of their budget.
Funding for NPR comes from dues and fees paid by member stations, underwriting from corporate sponsors and annual grants from the publicly-funded Corporation for Public Broadcasting.[5] Most of its member stations are owned by non-profit organizations,[6][7] including public school districts,[8] colleges,[9] and universities.[10]
Still public funding. Just not direct.

Most non profits are just social justice slush funds.

The vast majority I have listened to have been tied to a university. I suspect there may be some state support provided by the university, if only through space and equipment.
I think the model is actually a decent one: no official ads, local programming, local support, opportunities for students, etc.
