Explanation for the french one : onion is an old slang for anus. So “mind your own onions” is an old-fashioned way to say “mind your own ass”

There was definitely no tax breaks for that initiative though, so at least in my country that is indeed a myth
EDIT: You also get to say in your annual report to the shareholders that the company helped raise x millions euros to charities at no cos, which in turn makes them feel good about themselves without impacting their profits.
