I usually give $10 per year. Not because I think they need it, but because they are an important institution. I'm concerned that the number of contributors is going down though.

Taking how often they are doing edit-a-thons into account, it's possible that some of your money goes into recruiting new contributors. (WMF also has a scholarship for known-good contributors to attend these conferences.)
