: Actually, there is a quota for amounts of money donated each year. (at least for owner/operated stores) and if you dont reach that quota for whatever reason,the owner has to dig into her\his pocket and make up the difference. This is a large incentive for the store.

Sorry to correct your disinformation but there is no "quota" to meet.
We take the Ronald House very seriously and all monies donated to the
House go directly there.
