Spielberg Foundation donates $1 million

Spielberg Foundation donates $1 million to Jewish museum. Steven Spielberg’s Righteous Persons Foundation has donated $1 million (Rs 4.3 crore) to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania’s National Museum of American Jewish History.

The Schindler’s List director helped establish the foundation in the early 1990s with a view to share charity cash with worthwhile projects.

The museum, established in 1976, is dedicated to the history of the American Jew. The donated funds will go towards creating a new museum building set to open in 2010.
