Creating a Charity

Hiya everybody!  I have a question for you.  I'm a longtime bitcoin fan/owner and forum lurker.  In that time, I have seen a lot of things that seem ... scammy to me.  What I wanted to pick your brains about is this:

If I wanted to create a wallet with the intent of turning the bitcoins over to a charity, how would I do this without seeming like a guy who is trying to abscond with your bitcoins for my own personal gain?

So far, the only idea I've come across is to try to get the organization ( http://www.ccfa.org/ ) to set up something on bitpay.  But I was hoping to have the donations flow through my wife's blog. (I guess this is my personal gain in this matter)  Unfortunately, the only way that would work is if I converted the bitcoins back to USD through coinbase or some other exchange.  Which is the part that would come off as a scam to me if I was a random forum lurker looking at this post from a crazy guy asking for your coins.

Any ideas or suggestions?
