The per-seat license scheme can usually be negotiated with the company,
I am pretty sure any company will be glad to offer a huge discount or
just provide an unlimited license instead of seeing a potential customer
to move to a competitor. Unless said company just do not care about your
small revenues / sector ..

I am pretty sure GitHub will be glad to host Wikimedia git repositories
as an in-kind donation. Helping our project is definitely a nice asset
to any company willing to build a nice reputation, that will provide
them with a nice reference when prospecting new customer.
