I don't think they really made a direct profit from the party. The advertising may help the bottom line but at $250 per ticket for 5,000 tickets that's 1.25 million. They gave 1 million to charity. I'm pretty sure they spent the other $250,000 on expenses. Of course there's the tax write-off of the donation, but it sounds to me like a great way to get "free advertising".
