Just came across this story about a Japanese train company that travels to remote station every day just so one schoolgirl can get to class.
Altruism? Or marketing?
I say they are just doing a good thing. Corporations can do good things and just because doing something good is beneficial to corporate image, doesn't mean that the good deed is any less valid.

Little bit of both. Lots of companies do good deeds and it isn't marketed.
It is a good deed. Usually it is small companies who might do these kinds of things, where there are no big hierarchies. I am not used to seeing this kind of thing from big corporations, as -it seems- they have no feelings, at least the corporations on this side of the world.
Japan <3
As much as people like to make fun of how weird and different it is, their culture does have some perks.
