I think it would be fine for Harry to be charitable -
if the Weasley's agreed to accept it.  But forcing it
on them is not right.  They have the right to make a
choice regarding whether or not to accept charity.  

And I believe their position would be that they do not
need charity.  They have food and clothes and books -
even if the clothes and books are old.  They would
probably tell Harry that his money would be better
spent on people who really needed it.

Maybe Harry should offer - but he already knows their
answer and would only end up making everyone
uncomfortable.
