    The problem isn’t the charity, it’s the restrictive way a business handles charity donating.

    Why a quarter? Why these select brands? Could’ve done so much better.

      They probably had to negotiate with the brands so the brands could cough up 10¢ of that 25¢. Only certain brands agreed.

      The business exists to make money. That’s why it’s a business. Having a co donation scheme with a charity is just a way to let people incentivize extra purchases.

      If people simply didn’t buy those items and just donated directly that would be more efficient. That’s always an option
