I think it would behoove you to check into tax laws, specifically those laws that govern what kind of tax breaks a company gets for charitable donations. Every decision in a company is made with money in mind. If Apple donates any money to a charitable cause, it's because the folks in Accounting determined they'd get a hefty tax break for doing it.
No corporation, including Apple, is in the business of giving money away in exchange for nothing more than the warm, fuzzy feeling they get when donating to charities. It's always about the money and shareholders ALWAYS trump special interests.
