How does this make sense? By donating your labor you're effectively giving the charity money, since now they don't have to pay someone to do said labor. Since it's rare that your skills and an organization's needs are going to line up, it's almost always going to be more efficient to just make a donation.
If you think the organization is going to waste your donation, you shouldn't offer them labor instead - you should find a better organization.
