The Hewlett Foundation website specifically says they are wholly independent of both Hewlett-Packard and the Hewlett-Packard Company Foundation.

I haven't found the same disclaimer on the Packard Foundation website, but from what I did find, it looks like the original founders (of both foundations) left vast fortunes for philanthropy, which useless leeches have managed to batten onto to support their leftist causes and their own otherwise-unemployable asses.

I wouldn't buy an HP right now, because from what little I read of the WSJ, it looks like Carly Fiorina ran them into the ground, but I have hopes for a comeback.
