We had already thought about creating a foundation, but we just never had enough resources. Aside from funding campaigns which have enable us to maintain our capitalization and our regular activities, the organization, even though it generates a lot of money each year, could not generate the five or six million dollars needed to create a foundation, nor as it received generous donations of $20 or $25 million.
Donors have given amounts of $50,000, $100,000, $150,000 and $200,000, which have helped us maintained the museum activities repair or add new buildings. But up until now, we have not been able to create a foundation which would generate enough money. We issue receipts for income tax purposes and have to spend the money we raise in the course of a year.
