I donate to the EFF, and you should too!
Edit: I also donate through an app called Share the Meal, which provides meals to impoverished areas. You can choose where your donation goes.
I donate $50 a month to an organisation that celebrates birthdays for people in the Child & Adult Fostercare system.
RedoxOS, an open source operating system written in Rust that aims to improve correctness and safety by picking up innovations made by experimental operating systems over the years while not reinventing the wheel and trying to be source compatible with Linux.
QubesOS, the most secure open source operating system making it easy to use security by virtualisation, splitting your activities, peripherals, drivers into different virtual machines.
Various open source developers on GitHub.

Donated $20 to GrapheneOS when I first installed it. $5/mo to Signal. Local charities in my hometown.
$10/mo to GrapheneOS and Tor Project
I spend more on opensource than I ever would on proprietary software - gaming excluded, although if there were good opensource games on an opensource store, I’d get them and donate for sure.

EFF, Signal, Wikimedia, and ACLU.
IRL, local foodbanks, MSF, school, and environmental causes. My wife and in-laws, we pretty much just gift each other donations to charities we each like for holidays and birthdays. Other than an odd book here and there, none of us want more stuff to clutter and toss into landfills.
So far our oldest kid is heading the same way. Lectured us when our 20-yo fridge leaked and we had to get a new one. Asked why we couldn’t just fix it and keep using it :-)
Because a 20 year old fridge is much less efficient than a modern one. A fridge with A+++ rating is now a B or so in Europe. Get a new fridge. It’s better for the environment.
We did. Made sure it had a good EnergyStar rating. Not putting major appliance purchase decisions in the hands of a kid :-)
Time or money?
Time to openstreetmap, i2p, Wikipedia and others. Money to KDE, UN, Amnesty, and others.
I paid $50 to Wikipedia recently. Will attempt to donate to Void and Slackware and opensource projects like Jellyfin. Plenty of places to donate
