Etymology & Components

The Chinese word 捐助 (juānzhù) is composed of two characters: 捐 (juān) and 助 (zhù). The character 捐 originally meant "to give up" or "to donate", and it is often used in the context of making a donation or contribution. The character 助 means "to help" or "to assist", and it is often used in the context of providing support or assistance to someone or something. When these two characters are combined, the word 捐助 takes on the meaning of "to donate" or "to contribute", specifically in the context of providing financial or material support to a cause, organization, or individual in need.
