Hey Sherm, I have two suggestions.
Since I know you to be a very good programmer with a very good knowledge of how things work under OS X, I suggest going straight to Apple and pitching the idea of developing CamelBones for them. It could work out quite well if the arrangement is crafted well enough.
Or, set up a storefront and start charging some money for a "premium" version of camelbones, or charging a specific amount of money for support licenses.
But to be honest, I'm not surprised you haven't received enough donations yet to keep afloat. A google search for "camelbones donate" gives no useful results, nor did I see any invitation to donate by browsing on your site. But even if it were there, I don't think donations make a business model. Support licenses and premium products can, though.

This is not a decision to be made lightly, nor quickly. I'm not writing this to announce the end. But really, something's got to give here - I need to pay the rent, and so far, CamelBones isn't doing it. If something doesn't change - a job, serious financial backing, something - the end may not be very far off.
