If you work at Google, they will 1:1 match donations to virtually any non-profit, plus there's various charity drives where employees get to donate company money. So the match program can become a huge donor just off random Googlers donating.
The distinction doesn't really matter though, does it? Makes no different if it's Googlers as opposed to Google itself.
