Oxfam is a high class outfit, and receives the bulk of my charitable giving each year.

Since I think they use most of the money for charity and not for administrative stuff (80% charity, 10% paying staff, 10% trying to get more money) and it also helps the people I want to help.

Be careful here. There is a common misperception that the quality of a charity is directly related to the percentage of money that is given to its 'target', when in fact, this isn't really fair. Some charitable organizations (this is somewhat dependent on area, from what I've read) really do need to spend a fair chunk of money figuring out where their money should go and how they can maximize the impact of their giving.
