Well, surely you realize that these companies have literally thousands of patents (ie, IBM = 10,000 patents) themselves?

Financing an organization devoted to fighting and invalidating patents isn't exactly in their best interest.

Unless of course you come up with a waiver or agreement to not get involved in finding prior art for your donating member's patents.
