Just looking at the language in the begging for donations it's probably a non-native English speaker whose first language may lack articles and/or allow omitted subjects.
The part that threw me off is putting the currency symbol at the end. I wonder what places do that...

AFAIK, putting the currency symbol in front of the number is actually more rare. Most cultures treat it like any other unit of measurement.

plenty of Europeans at least
In Russia at least. Perhaps in some post-Soviet countries (not sure)
Doesn't really seem relevant, does it? Plenty of native English speakers are also using chatbots for dumb bullshit.
Nevermind, I kept reading and I saw "kindly request donation." Now I know exactly who is behind it (₹)
