Just please make sure that whoever you talk to is actually authorized to legally donate the rights to the images. We've had several cases where someone at a company has donated a collection of images, but we later had to delete them all because the representative didn't actually control the rights. PETA and Cafe Magazine are 2 examples I remember off the top of my head.

*However*, it occurs to me that one thing we could do with more of is
high-quality imagery, and companies have a pile of this stuff. Often
professional shots of whatever that they've taken for promotion that
sit in a box forever.

WMIT (Frieda in particular) constantly reminds them so; an agreement has been recently reached with Telecom Italia to take advantage from their huge archives, but I don't remember if there's a report anywhere or if the details can be made public yet (Frieda?).
