Definition
捐资 is a separable verb (离合词) meaning 'to donate money or property (usually to a public cause)'. You can split it like most other verb-object compounds: insert a verb complement, measure word, or duration between the two characters (e.g. 捐了一笔资 'donated a sum of money'). It cannot take a direct person-object — instead use 给 + person before the verb, or specify the recipient after the object (捐资给学校). Common in formal/charity contexts.
v.o.
to donate money (or property)to make a financial contribution (to a public cause)
