Cool, good to hear, I didn't know about this. It seems to be a small step, but at least it's a step in the right direction. I hope Apple makes it a point to advertise everywhere that they're doing this (so that other companies can follow). I think America would do well to have a policy compelling publicly owned companies to have social goals (apart from the profit-maximizing ones).

In which case they are going to be accused of doing a "bullshit PR dance." Damned if you do...

If they are actually doing the advertised good deeds, it will just be a PR dance, minus the bullshit. One smells a whole lot better.
