Was propapbly an emberassed employee paying it out of his own pocket, just pretending his company would even care a tiny bit.
Last time this was posted someone said apple matches employee donations and someone probably donated 24 and apple matched it.
$5-24*
But yeah, this is 100% the case of Apple matching an employees donation
Or, someone donated 2.5-12, Apple matched it and filed the whole thing under their corporate account.

$250-$499 range.
Meanwhile BlackBerry donated in the $10k+ range. 🤣
but blackberry doesn't donate or make systems anymore...
Apparently they have cash enough to donate. 🤷
\No, I'm saying they aren't in the donors list either\ Oh wait I just saw they're in the partners zone, nevermind!
This was either inspect-element'd or made before March 2019. Apparently Apple (or its employees) donate little by little over each year. Here are the total donation records:
2023: $250-499 (so far)
2022-2021: $1,000–$4,999
2020: $250-499
2019-2018: $1,000-4,999
Made me laugh out loud though at least, right hand side mspaint comic is well-made
Also, why are the Apple people blue-collars?
$24?
Surely it was only $5.
"It won't go lower than $5!"
"Uuugghhh, fine, give them five."
"Alright, we're on the supporters list"
"Great, issue a press release telling everyone how great we are for giving back."
