I've been trying to donate or purchase to keep my points to no avail. It says click on PURCHASE miles, but there is no link.

points are about to expire...I might just have to fly somewhere...not keen on losing all points..

Update: I think I got it sorted by going to the Chinese site instead of the US version of Fortune Wings. What a PITA!
Waiting for the credit of the purchased miles to see if the time got extended...

Update 2: It worked! Bought 1000 points for RMB120 (said 1000 was the minimum) and points extended two years. Was a close-call with only a few days to spare for them all to expire. I know I could have somehow donated points without paying anything, but I was just glad I finally found the BUY option, so wasn't keen on further frustration/investigation on how to get this extended for free.
