I would guess you are not, unless you went on your merry way to another guy to get pre-authorised debits from your account to help kids with cancer. Otherwise, you're just a cheap bastard trying to find an excuse not to give away money instead of saying you simply dont wanna. Because your answer would have been no even if the guy was helping kids with cancer.

It would be a pain in the ass to cancel the withdrawals if you needed to. When you call them, they would lay a big guilt-trip on you, no doubt.
However, instead of being a smart-ass to the guy working for the charity, I think a better response would be to say "No thanks, but I would like to make a cash donation. Here's 10 bucks." (...or whatever you feel like giving)
