The Anger Management actor was speaking to a policeman in Hermosa Beach in California, when he discovered the officer's ten-year-old daughter, Jasmine, had been diagnosed with Childhood Rhabdomyosarcoma (CR).
Father-of-five Charlie is said to have told the officer: 'No parent should have to watch their kid go through that'.
And the next day, the actor sent a cheque for $75,000 to the Hermosa Beach Police Association, which had started a fund in Jasmine's honour.
According to TMZ.com, Charlie's stunt-double Eddie Braun also gave $25,000.
The the family is extremely grateful for the donation and hopes their actions will inspire others to join the fight against CR.
CR is a debilitating form of cancer that occurs in the muscle tissue and requires over a year of expensive medical treatments like chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Last month, Charlie gave Lindsay Lohan $100,000 when he heard she was having financial difficulties, but claimed she had never thanked him.
He said: 'She got shorted and I found out, so I said, "Here."
'I'm still waiting for a text to say, "Thank you". Anything you know?'
Meanwhile, Charlie's ex wife Brooke Mueller recently checked back into rehab for the 19th time to battle an addition to prescription medication.
Rather than leave their young twins Bob and Max in the care of the former Two And A Half Men star, she has reportedly asked that the actor's other ex-wife Denise Richards take them in while she gets treatment.
