To answer the last question first, right now, we're on the smallest hosting plan our host provides, which is a little more than $8 per month. Obviously, that ain't working for us. 
Our AWS spend will probably be around $50ish per month, which is about par for the course for a virtual private server in the cloud with managed database services. (I spend $49/mo on a frankly crappy VPS with another provider for my personal web site.)
That said, at this time, while I appreciate the thought, I'm not accepting donations towards the site's costs as I can handle the hosting costs myself. If things should change and I need to hand out the collection plate to avoid putting up ads, I'll let everyone know.
