I don't know how to define charity. Is environmental protection charitable? World Wildlife Fund?
Nevertheless, I give once a year to certain international charities like Med.Sans Frontiers, and I give away old stuff to the homeless-helping organizations in the city. On occasion I've also given money to medical research funds.
I also tend to give to specific aid efforts as they come up - Darfur, the quake in Pakistan etc, and the typical amount I give is around 50euro or so in such cases. As I think my civilized nation should use some of my tax money to help the needy here, I prefer to give to efforts abroad where people don't have what we have or to science.
