It's actually easier than that. Techies are more likely to be atheists or not attend church. That's where most of the "charitable" giving in the US goes. A replacement for that would be fantastic, but there just isn't anything pounding into techies week after week that they should put 10% of their income towards charities.
Lutheran World Relief will gladly take donations over the web (even from atheists :-P ). They have a four star rating from Charity Navigator, which is a pretty good rating. All of their financial statements are available online.
