There are plenty of corporations who don't make such promises.
Trite, but disputed by many (most?) leading authorities, including Peter Drucker.

Some, probably most, not all.
"A benefit corporation or B corporation is a corporate form in the United States designed for for-profit entities that want to consider society and the environment in addition to profit in their decision making process."
E.g., Patagonia is a B-corp.
Often co-operatives will fit well in to this category as the workers in a co-operative are rather less likely to malevolently exploit themselves in a disdainful pursuit of profit before humanity.
Killing the goose is never maximizing profit.
