I am aware that this may get derided as advertising, but I really don't think it's true - this is merely an extended press release, as it were. I think that a line (in the site notice), saying something like "Foo have pledged to match up to US$200,000 in our [[current fund-raising drive]]" instead of the current text ("Your [[continued donations]] keep Wikipedia running!") would be appropriate and understated (believe me, I'm British, "understated" is what we /do/).
We wouldn't get away with naming the company in the sitenotice - it'd have to be a link to a page listing the matching donations. Think that'd work for anyone?
