Comment on YSK that when you’re asked to make a donation at check-out, the company does not get a tax break for it!

This topic always causes a lot of negative comments whenever it’s mentioned. Far more people falsely claim there’s a corporate tax benefit compared to people reminding that it’s not true.

There’s a secondary factor: when you donate through the company, they have an increase in gross profit without an increase in revenue. It’s actually worse on their balance sheet from a performance standpoint. Not that it matters much in the grand scheme of things tho.
