Question

I know that some companys are able to give 3 donations a year because they get right when income tax comes. I live in Ga but I know there are tons of the same companys everywhere. Please name a few if you know. Thanks

Answer 1

Big corporations mostly have corporate giving programs, but they are designed for the "greater good" and not for individual's enrichment purposes such as starting businesses.

Here are some of the big companies' corporate giving programs and their objectives:

Dell Foundation http://www.dell.com/content/topics/global.aspx/corp/foundation/en/index?c=us&l=en&s=corp
Recipients are 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and objective is to address the health and human services, the education, and the technology access for youth.

Microsoft http://www.microsoft.com/citizenship/giving/
Provides support to Community-Based Technology and Learning Center (CTLC) organizations including Nonprofit—in the United States, 501(c)(3) designation—or a nongovernmental organization; Government funded and operated—a nonprofit organization that receives government funding or is a partner with a governmental; and schools.

Philip Morris http://www.philipmorrisusa.com/en/our_initiatives/community_involvement.asp
Provides financial and in-kind contributions to local organizations, and through sponsorship of community events. Again, applicants must be non-profit, charitable organizations tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

The story is the same for other corporations - their gift giving program focuses on the community, on non profits, and NOT on individuals.

Answer 2

Lots of companies donate to charity. EBay was the first to jump in when Katrina struck with a Red Cross donation of $250,000.
Watch Public Television (PBS) and you will find a mass of companies and corporations which donate to many worthy causes and completely financially support some of them. Jot down the names and contact them with your ideas. You may also look through a some professional business publications as well as charitables. Many are sold over the counter and most are available online. Good luck.

Answer 3

Most companies donate one way or another. You need to find the person who makes those decisions within the company. Also, it is much easier to get an in-kind domation than a cash donation.

All companies usually have some sort of public relations like several local businesses in my area sponsor youth sports teams like restruants and even a trading card place. Public relations is critical for businesses to remain or become successful because without it they wouldn't have a good name for themselves.
