The definition is at the end of the clue.
How the clue works
Have a look at "chariTY PErhaps" — the answer's sitting right there in the middle, and "Some" is the signal that we need to dig it out. So it's a hidden word job, reading straight forwards, giving us the answer. The definition itself is kind, as in a sort or type of something.
