No, basically nobody donates anything to anyone ever. Across all of the mods I've participated in, I think the average is probably 2 donations per project. (Those always go to the 3d artist, I've never gotten one, so you'd have to ask the modelers to be sure.)
In general, if you give people a chance to get something for free, they're going to take it.
Remember that the next time you download a mod that obviously took a small team of skilled people hundreds of hours each to produce.
