I'm not sold on this, although I do think this is plausible, but my gut tells me otherwise. They are required to pledge a certain amount of people whom they "want to help out in the same way they were helped." So I'm pretty cynical about it all. Nonetheless, I hadn't considered this. I'd like to believe it to rationalize taking advantage of the people in my introductory course.They probably invited you knowing you want their donations.
