Not when the service provided directly benefits them, that is a service provider, a vendor. When their contributors are only a set of ten companies, how can a non-profit act independent of those 10 companies?

Because they are a separate entity… and when a for profit company donates the assets have to be classified by the non profit depending on any restrictions donors may have, also non profit entities have multiple documentation requirements for both donors and vendors. I’ve audited non profits all over Pittsburgh if these things are missing or unreported we the auditors disclose that info and the non profit can lose 501c3 status.
