The Horde Project runs a bounty program. If Inkscape were to adopt a funding program, it should probably follow Horde's model (whoever implements the first accepted patch wins the bounty, patch approval & bounty program are administered and/or escrowed by senior Horde devs [historically Chuck & Jan]).

LyX has some kind of mechanism for jointly donating towards the implementation of a specific feature.
With a bit of googling there seem to be quite a number of sites for
arranging freelance work like this. I don't know if anyone here has an experience with such a site or would be able to recommend one, but my guess would be that it might be easiest and most transparent to just post your requests on such a site and announce it here, especially if you also want to let others donate.
