I was going to say the same thing... that tzedakah covers both, really. And that "tithe" is also an insufficient word.
Still, I agree, Ian, that "charity" is far to limiting a word and that occasionally "tithe" evokes a stronger sense of responsibility when trying to explain to someone the obligations of tzedakah.
