Jeff, I’m always uncomfortable with the idea that the manufacturers are the go-to resource for these types of initiatives, and I’m even more uncomfortable ‘expecting” or trying to ‘convince’ them, or anyone, otherwise.

How much a person donates is a personal matter and answerable to no one. My theory is to lead by example. Donate your own money and if others see the wisdom behind your actions, they’ll donate too.
