If you want, you could send pull request to those gems on their github repository (or just upload your gists/pieces of code that you consider useful).

If you want to start a project you should consider learning how to test (and it will also help you if you want to contribute to some gem repository) and this guide could show you how to start http://guides.rubyonrails.org/
