No. I'm from Brazil and I really wanted to contribute to Brazilian developers, because my currency is nothing next to the euro or dollar, so I think: what's the point? I can donate a considerable amount and that would be like 5€, I want to make a bigger impact.
I also really want to see some project or developer from my country grow, but I just can't never find anything that came from here.
Donating even a very small amount sends a signal, and makes the developers feel valued. You spent time and effort to send a token amount, that is a strong emotional event.
