While the unstable value point is true, its probably not the reason people are being wary - OP just wants to donate a sum, after all.
The actual "dangerous" part is that the exchanges (that swap your regular currency for Bitcoin) have had a spotty track record in recent times, just look up Mt Gox. Basically a whole bunch of Bitcoin was stolen and despite the whole block-chain deal, some are still unaccounted for.
Then of course if you are particular about those sort of things, Bitcoin is often associated with payments for several criminal activities.
That said, if you really just want to donate, I'd say go for it
