A foundation created by Steven Spielberg is giving $1 million to the National Museum of American Jewish History.
The money from the Righteous Persons Foundation will go toward a new five-story museum building being built in Philadelphia.
With the donation, officials say the museum’s capital campaign has raised $111 million toward its $150-million goal. The new museum is set to open in 2010.
