Since there are few corporations that have a corporate interest in "freedom," then the money and resources have to come from individuals.

I'd disagree. The majority of corporations have a financial interest in freedom. Getting them to commit resources to any lobbying effort is the challenge.

Basic economic theory says you're wrong. Corporations don't have incentives to be good outside if their bottom line long-term, the only reason they occasionally do good is due to social or regulatory pressure. For the most part, corporations are going to do what's good for their bottom line without carrying about the long-term effects.
