If there is a clear quid-pro-quo arrangement going on, such as the congressperson using the funding to support a lobbying group in order to court them into hiring him when his term is up, this can be seen as corruption. However, for the most part, corruption is in the other direction, e.g. a political organization gives money or a non-monetary good to a politician for some political benefit.
It could potentially be considered a conflict of interest or unethical behavior, especially if the donation is used to influence policy decisions that could benefit the congressperson financially. However, whether it constitutes corruption would depend on the specific circumstances and intent behind the donation.
