I've recently come into a bit of excess money and I feel like giving back to some FOSS people.
I'd like to make my money go to people who don't already get a bunch of other donations (not to say those people aren't worthy!). Any ideas?

Ampache is A web based audio/video streaming application and file manager. Allowing you to access your music & videos from anywhere, using almost any internet enabled device.
- SerenityOS [0], they do get some donations, but nothing close to the Linux Foundation, Wikipedia, or Mozilla.
- MikroORM [1] if you'd like to support an ORM for TypeScript in the backend, again some donations, but nothing close to SerenityOS!
SVGO https://github.com/svg/svgo is used by many graphics software but hasn't seen donations commensurate with usage https://opencollective.com/svgo
- Davide Faconti (https://github.com/facontidavide) for his work on BehaviorTrees that are game changing for some projects and for his plotting library that saved me hours of time debugging robotics systems
- Atsushi Sakai (https://github.com/AtsushiSakai) for his collection PythonRobotics with neat visualizations of some of the concepts
You can also browse the list of participating organizations for last google summer of code for FOSS foundations etc. geared up to manage donations.
Edit: not going to plug any specific ones, but this will get you a candidate list. I would personally start by looking at underlying software that has helped you most in earning your living.
