If I am receiving money from a stranger via wire transfer then taking that money and sending a wire transfer to another party on behalf of someone else, am I guilty of any crime? The money is for a charity.

While I'd need details, it sounds like you are being sucked into a criminal scam that can land you in jail (or empty your bank account). DO NOT DO THIS and never talk to the people who proposed it again. You are about to lose a lot of money (as they will use the transfer info to loot your account and your money will likely land in Africa). You will never see it and the transfer will be fake. And when you join the scheme, you could see prison.
