The Chinese word 捐款 (juānkuǎn) for "donation" is composed of two characters: 捐 (juān) and 款 (kuǎn). The character 捐 originally meant "to give up" or "to abandon", but in modern Chinese it has come to mean "to donate" or "to contribute". The character 款 originally meant "a type of jade", but in modern Chinese it has come to mean "money" or "funds". Thus, the word 捐款 literally means "to give up money" or "to contribute funds". It is often used in the context of charitable donations or fundraising.
