Which website allows you to choose a charity and then donate to it as a way of gifting someone on a special occasion?

I remember having used this once but don't have the link with me now. It used to list several causes (e.g. donate food to children, donate school books etc) and then you can select a cause and an amount to donate. Their tag line or domain had something to do with being "better than gifts".
Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

There seem to be several. One is JustGive.org, which, with 1.5 million local charities to choose from, seems great. The recipient can choose where to donate the money.

Tisbest seems to have taken a more active role and chosen 200 charities to pick from, and the recipient chooses.

Heifer is a place where you can donate things for food production (and therefore, help the farmer out, too).

And Google is always helpful; I found these sites googling "charity donate as gift." CNN also has a list of information and tips about giving to charity instead of giving a regular gift.

Pretty much any non-profit will allow you to make a donation as a gift in someone else's name. Usually a card is sent acknowledging the gift. Causecast is co-located with and is one stop site for supporting multiple charities.
