Well it's certainly a question of scale. I've seen some successful indie projects where the hosting costs are met by donations, but that's usually when the admin/dev(s) are donating their labor. I struggle to imagine a community that could crowdfund enough for a few reasonable salaries on top of hosting costs.
Though my imagination isn't particularly strong, so I would be delighted if such a thing came to be!
