'Give Something Back' is a for-profit office supply company, with a twist. They have donated 92% of its after-tax profits to community-based organizations — more than 68 times the national corporate average. With more than 2 million dollars in donations, they are one of America's 10 most generous companies. And it all started with Sean Marx and Mike Hannigan making sales calls out of their living room.
