Yes, you can. It might take some research to find out where you can take the specific degree, but you could put together a good background for charitable work at almost any college.
Doing a search for "getting a major in charitable work" I found results for: utexas.edu/student/careercenter/careers/man.pdf. This same information should be available at the websites of most universities. Also, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, at: gatesfoundation.org does a great deal of charitable work. You might write or email them and ask about the degrees of people who work for their foundation.

Sociology, social work, or even psychology are great majors to start a career in helping people.
