I believe the answer is:

bounty

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'charitable gift' is the definition.
'bounty' can be an answer for 'gift' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'charitable' bit.

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bounty that I've seen before include "Reward for capture" , "ship commandeered by rebels" , "Christian took responsibility for this" , "Generous gift" , "Name of Captain Bligh's mutinous ship" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
