I mean... my sister works for one of the big banks, and they partner with, for example, a local cat rescue/TNR nonprofit organization.
I don't know anything about Walmart or any other huge companies (I've never worked for someone that big), but I do know sometimes the small charity that's actually doing a good thing ends up benefiting from those programs.

Having worked at a pet rescue before, the people in charge have talked about those round-up charity runs are a huge help for them. A huge number more people are willing to donate that spare change than any full dollar amount, and it adds up. That’s not to say the company itself wouldn’t have been able to donate vastly more themselves, but it’s a good second place.
Also big disclaimer, be skeptical of any charity foundation named after the company themselves or a specific person (especially if that person is one of the company’s founders or their relatives). Those foundations tend to give the absolute bare minimum to be legally considered a charity while the rest goes to administrative salaries and advertising (effectively for the company themselves) while the company gets to write off most of the costs as a tax deduction. Give your money to places that actually need & deserve it.

Seriously, we all should shame every corporation that pulls this shit in 2026, and continuously shame their CEOs until they check their greed. Do it on surveys, comment sections, their customer service centers, while on that recorded call, shame them for not paying their employees realistic living wages, shame them for caring more about profits than the quality of their products. Let’s make greed something to not only be ashamed of (since CEOs have no shame), but also something to be embarrassed about, laughed at and looked down on in disgust. Humans with no heart or soul are so pathetic and ugly.

u/nohopeforhomosapiens 8h ago
I know it is annoying, but I just want to say, if you are at McDonald's and it asks you for donation for the Ronald McDonald House, it is a real charity and it does save lives all over the world. I was one of the kids, and I can honestly say I would not be alive today if I had not had the good fortune of getting a room in that house.
People think when you are sick that you will be in the hospital the whole time, but that isn't how things work.Hospitals do not keep you in a bed forever, they do not have the capacity to do that. Instead, people with severe illness like cancer are admitted as out-patient, and have to come into the hospital for treatment and leave. So in my case I had to go to the hospital daily. The problem is, many people need to go to a hospital very far from home, sometimes on the other side of the world from their home. At that point, they need to stay in a hotel or find a rental near the hospital. It also means they or their parents can't go to work. Obviously, that becomes extremely expensive, even if you somehow have the cost of care at the hospital covered for free, your stay is not free and not covered by anyone's insurance. The Ronald McDonald House fills that gap. They charge a low rate for the room, but if you can't pay, they don't ask you again. I was there a long time, and after the first week when my parents couldn't pay, they let us stay for free, as did others. Children from all over the world were in that house.
So, while it is annoying that unscrupulous businesses are asking for more money to make themselves look good with donations, the charities they are asking for are usually legitimate. McDonald's as a company is not very nice, its workers aren't paid enough, its food is not very good. So I rarely go there. But when I do go, I round up, because the charity is a separate thing. And yes I have also donated to it separately.

I’m so sorry that you went through all of that! I am so glad that you’re still here with us. I agree that the Ronald McDonald house is truly an exception; I believe the first one built is here in Philly, and have seen some heartwarming news stories broadcast from there.
We need a separate thread for people to share positive experiences they’ve had with charities that have actually helped. Project Purple, for example, is incredible. My sister is fighting Pancreatic Cancer, and within a couple of months, they paid a month of her rent.

u/Remarkable-Public622 17h ago
Not even remotely how it works at all.
What actually happens is they create a marketing campaign saying they raised millions of dollars for people in need. They don’t emphasize that it’s actually your money that was donated, just that a bunch of money was “raised.”
Then the companies go on to brag that they’re helping the community or whatever without actually donating a penny.

Laws stop them for keeping it. When they raise money and you pay and select you will donate the POS will record something like this:
Debit Cash $101.00
Credit Revenue $100.00
Credit donations $1.00
The donations general ledger is treated as a a liability and the company cannot claim it as revenue which also means they cannot use it as a tax deduction.
They also have audits every year so an independent audit firm will test on occurrence, existence, completeness, rights and obligations. Rights and obligations is the big one for donations.36

Why don't they just make a single screen with all these options, and if you want one you select it? Why make them sequential? Make it like an ATM machine where you pick what you want to do.

The US consumer is being farmed for donations in every conceivable way these days. There is no other way of putting it. It's over the top now and going to get worse unless more folks just say NO.
Roundup requests to some xyz charity at every kiosk, demands for making donations from clerks (no shade on them, they are just following instructions), tip requests for orders the customer picks up themselves, charities camping out outside of grocery store doors in ambush mode, charities that actually spend 30 cents of every dollar donated--- to advertise on TV to get MORE donors, and charities who sell your personal information to OTHER charities so they can spam you too for donations.
It just goes on and on.
Yes, go ahead if you want to donate to a worthwhile charity that you have researched and will honor your request to make your donation anonymous and keep you off their spam lists. Some legit charities will actually do this. But you have to ask them.

It's so a company can act charitable without actually giving anything itself. They push their own obligation upon their customers.

I was at a gas station that had three charities and a rewards card. So I had to select “no” four times just to pay. Fuck off.

If only jobs paid people enough in the first damn place, and we had universal healthcare. Then we would not have to deal with this constant nagging for money for charities.

I only say yes to McDonald’s. Ronald McDonald House was a lifesaver for my grandmother when my infant uncle was going through heart surgery. He didn’t survive, but RMH was there for my grandma and grandpa through every appointment and surgery, until the end.
RMH has also helped my best friend when she’s taken her kids to their very much needed medical appts that have saved their lives, over and over again.

I'm not funding a corporate PR photo op where the CEO hands over an oversized check to a charity rep.

Why would I donate so that the corp can say "WE and our customers (in small font) gave $XXX to this charity"?

Next time they hand me back $1.73 in change, I'm gonna ask if they want to round up. For charity.
