Most are a lot smarter than smaller businesses - which are also great supporters of their communities in general - and are very visible on their websites in listing their programs, the guidelines and how to apply as well as where they've given support in the past.

The fiduciary duties of a corporate officer or board of director in regards his company and shareholders do not ever supercede the laws of the land.
