corporate donor

Company giving money

A corporate donor is a business or company that gives money, goods, or services to charitable causes, nonprofit organizations, or political campaigns.

The term appears frequently in fundraising contexts: The gala attracted several corporate donors.

Corporate donors often receive recognition or tax benefits in exchange for their contributions, and the phrase sometimes carries implications about influence or conflicts of interest: Critics questioned whether the corporate donor had shaped the policy.
