First of all it depends on which type of charge you are talking about. I assume it is the electric charge. In which case the following elementary particles are charged:

Quarks, electron, muon, tau and W bosons.

Basic charged atomic particles are electrons (negatively charged) and protons (positively charged). It is a particle on an atomic scale that is charged. Now this is really basic and in reality it is much more complex than that (protons consist of quarks two of which are 'up' and one 'down' and there are more charged particles), but since you ask about atomic and not subatomic particles, the first sentence is the answer.

Protons give atoms a positive charge, while electrons give atoms a negative charge. In a neutral atom, the charges cancel, whereas an ion can have a positive or negative charge due to a surplus of one of the aforementioned particles.

electrons and protons are oppositely charged particles. For convenience, we consider electrons to hold a negative charge and protons to hold a positive charge.

Atoms have two kinds of charged particles, the positively charged protons, and the negatively charged electrons.
