Sayyidah Maymunah bint Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with her) relates that she said: O Messenger of Allah! Tell us the ruling about giving charity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is a barrier from Hell for the one who hopes for its reward, seeking thereby the pleasure of Allah Almighty."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. Its chain contains a narrator whom I do not know.
