Donating to Solr
I find this open source project very useful. Is there any way to donate
money for it?

Another way to donate if it's a significant sum is to fund Outreachy
https://www.outreachy.org with some note that it's intended for sponsoring
an Apache Solr based intern project. This basically pays stipends to an
intern. Unfortunately, sending money to the ASF doesn't work to fund this
sort of thing due to ASF's policies to avoid any appearance of
pay-for-work. I'm wrapping up an Outreachy project as a mentor but it
almost didn't happen due to lack of funding.

I know the project has been looking for more hardware resources for running tests, and some companies are currently sponsoring benchmark hardware and Jenkins servers for other OS'es. So that is one non-money way to contribute. In any case you could start the dialogue with Apache centrally and they will contact the Solr project for coordination of how to channel solr-labeled donations.

Not sure about Solr, but you can donate to the Apache Software Foundation:
