I noticed recently that every time I opened my browser the landing page would have a request for a donation to Mozilla,. I would like to donate and it one time went as far as filling out part of the form for donation but they don't have my card information handy and log off the internet before I could finish the transaction. Ever since then I have been receiving emails from someone at Mozilla or what it looks to be up here for Mozilla. I get one more than once a day sometimes and I was wondering if this is a a fraud or would I be receiving emails from Mozilla requesting a donation?

Likely they are e-mailing you because you started the form but never finalized it

The Mozilla Foundation (the non-profit that owns the corporation that develops Firefox) does ask for donations, especially at the end of the year. You can donate anytime at https://donate.mozilla.org/
