The word "charitarian" is very rare. I had never heard of it before your posting. However, to answer your question, a charitarian supports charities. A philanthropist gives $ to what he/she thinks are good causes, but not necessarily charities. A philanthropist can give money to a museum for example.
By the way, next time, post this in the ANSWERS section of Italki (since you don't want a correction, just an answer)
