pseudo-charity 

Noun

1. (Also known as "fake charity") An organization or event which claims to fully or partially solve a problem of social welfare ("for charity"), but uses methods that do not effectively solve the problem, or solve it at the expense of creating harder-to-solve problems. This misleading nature may be intentional (e.g., for profit, for company image) or unintentional (e.g., uninformed people with good intentions)

2. A trait or aspect of one's personality, describing a person who appears to have great charity, but frankly, does not. This could be intentional or unintentional, aware or unaware.

Pseudocharitas 

A common behavior in Christian cultures. Consists of insisting how Christlike you are. A "Christier than thou" way of acting. This is used by many Christians whether they are generally nice people or disgusting POS's. The traits that practitioner will claim to have are usually called love, charity, compassion, caring or forgiveness. Some practitioners merely declare their Charitas publicly. Others take you to task publicly for your lack of Charitas. This trait is a central feature of American culture.
"American exceptionalism" is a close relation to Pseudocharitas. Thus Obama can mow down Pakistani children because everybody knows how Christian he is.
