The word donate does not specifically mean "to a charity" It means to give a gift. Sometimes to charities. Sometimes not.

It means to gift something and not expect anything back.

That's how i take it anyway.

I donated time to my parents restaurant, back when they had one. It certainly wasn't for charity. It was just a gift.

Just giving my take on the word. I don't mean any offense to anyone.
