tithed
Contributed ten percent
Tithed is the past tense of tithe, meaning to give a tenth of one's income or produce, traditionally to a church or religious institution: They tithed faithfully for decades.
The practice comes from biblical commandments.
More loosely, tithed can mean giving a portion to any cause: She tithed part of her salary to charity.
