Is there a collective community Donation Day for FOSS devs so we can remember to donate?

I always mean to but forget. If it was on a calendar, my ADHD braain would notice and prepare for it.

Set up a reoccurring event on your calendar, create a git page of some sort and suggest developers to donate to on whatever day you choose.
I want to make the donations. Like, I think about F-droid that I use and Fossify, and need to plan to donate one day.
Yes, it's today. Donate now.
Having like an annual day where floss folks talk about projects they're excited about and show them some love would be really cool actually
I think there February the 14th I love free software day by the FSF
For you to remember, perhaps not needed. As Reannlegge mentioned, if a banking or payment service you use allow setting recurring payments, that's a good option. Also if the developer or developers are on platforms that allow recurring payments, like Patreon, it's also interesting.
For reminding others, when talking about such projects, include a reminder to support every now and then, though avoid spamming or speaking only very sporadically.
