Russian term or phrase: популярными NGO's
The context is:
"as you can see, the most popular NGOs are the following ones...."

Should the word популярными be translated literally as popular, or is it better to use a different term such as influential?
Popular seems a bit out of place and flippant, but could influential be losing the true meaning?
