I've given my parents 2 first class tickets to Hawaii.
I've given my sister a trip to Cancun.
I've given my 2 aunts first class tickets to SEA, SFO, and DFW.
I'm giving one of my best friends an AA VIP2 so he can upgrade to first on a trip to Europe.
I make 200k miles from travel each year and I end up using it all up by giving it away. I only use them personally for upgrades or last-minute trips.
I don't want to seem greedy, but I have never donated miles to charity. They all go away to friends & family.
