I have always said that when I actually have an income that outstrips my monthly survival needs, I would set aside for fun spending (big ticket items, vacations, etc.), playing in the stock market, retirement, and donations. Here is just a quick list of groups I would like to donate to at some point.
The EFF has done great work in trying to keep my digitial rights going as has the ACLU in terms of free speech.
All of the universities I have attended deserve something. They all helped get me to where I am today.
The PSF at least deserves to get the money back that they gave me for going to PyCon this year.
In terms of open source applications that I use constantly, Vim, OpenSSH, and the Mozilla Foundation should all get money. I have used software from these three groups for eons.
