Your question is incomplete, but I assume that the sentence you were given is:
<em>The women’s club held fundraisers on a </em><em><u>semiannual</u></em><em> basis.</em>
The underlined word is <em>semiannual.</em> The prefix in this word is <em>semi-</em><em>, </em>which means <em>half</em>. For example, a semicircle is half a circle.
<em>Semiannual</em> means <em>twice a year.</em> Once half a year passed, the women's club held a fundraiser, meaning that they organized fundraisers twice a year.
