I’ve always wanted to donate to the Women’s Shelter that helped my mom and I way back in the day.
Now that I’m finally in a position to do so, I’m gonna go with that.Local food bank
Already did. There is a project called TransFARMation who help farmers transition to 100% plant-based agriculture. The German org just started this August.

Not in the holidays, but the first days of the year i donate clothes and blood to a hospital, being doing it for around 7 years now.
I’ve got some overlap with OP’s list through: Mozilla Foundation, Wikimedia Foundation, Signal Technology Foundation, EFF, and ACLU (and I’m subscribed to a Bitwarden Family plan)
Some other places I’ll be donating:
Doctors Without Borders
Human Rights Watch
World Central Kitchen
Asante Africa Foundation (supporting education & scholarships for people, especially girls, in Eastern Africa - great place to donate if you want a small $ to go a long way)
Save the Manatee Foundation (get them back on the endangered species list!)
Trees for the Future (restoring ecosystems AND providing food/income/educational resources to impoverished communities)
A local charity that supports emergency preparedness and community activities in my community

For me some climate protest movements
Extinction Rebellion
Scientist Rebellion
Protest movements overall might be most effective and trying to save our climate or at least reduce our impact just seems too be the most important thing right now. At least to me.

The Yogscast Jingle Jam! They do an annual month long Livestream where they play games and raise money for a variety of charities. Donations of 35 pounds or more also get a whole bevy of game keys as part of the collection that can be redeemed on steam. You can see the list of games or donate at jinglejam.tiltify.com
