You can't say that about other American corporations.
Despite the large number of inattentive parents, drug addicts, and hurricane poopers, it's a decent place.

There's actually a multitude of for-profit organizations that also work toward benefiting/funding non-profit organizations. From the way you've described the kind of service your company provides, I would agree that it's kind of rare that a retail based organization would be willing to directly fund the work of nonprofits, with a few obvious exceptions.
