What you're getting is not an error. When you run npm install or npm update in the command prompt and when it is done they recommend you to run a new command called npm fund.

When you run npm fund it will list all the modules and packages you have installed that were created by companies or organizations that need money (donations) for their projects. You will get a list of pages where you can send donations to support their projects.

They basically give you a list of all the projects that needs contributions or donations for their projects. You can go to those webpages and donate money to those projects.

For the high severity vulnerabilities problem, it is only a new npm functionality to warn users about vulnerabilities in the packages they're installing. It's only showing warning about vulnerabilities in the packages you're installing.

npm audit command does is just running a full fledged npm install command. You can read more about that in npm audit command page

Hope this helped!
