What 捐 means
It represents 捐, which means “donate” or “contribute” in Chinese.
The Chinese dictionary Shuowen Jiezi glosses 捐 as “abandon”; Chinese also uses it in words for donations and fundraising.
Why does it turn into 捐?
Unicode normalization maps it to 捐.
This 捐 form comes from T6-314F in plane 6 of Taiwan’s CNS 11643-1992 character set; Unicode kept such forms for lossless conversion. The two-character sequence 捐︀ (U6350 UFE00) requests this glyph variant.

1Why does 捐 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
