I have some different ideas;
miss a chance: "fırsatı kaçırmak". But it can be : "şansı elinden kaçırmak" and also: "fırsatı elinden kaçırmak" as well.
waste an opportunity: "bir fırsatı boşa harcamak"
donate: "bağış yapmak" sounds better for me, bağışlamak or hibe etmek could be ok but you have to say what you give as material. as example: "bir kitap bağışladı" he gave a book as donation. You can't say only "bağışlamak", but you can say "bağış yapmak" itself, and also by saying the amount of money.
