The Canadian Museum for Human Rights is ready to open and the money is still coming in.

The Friends of the CMHR announced today that that Temerty Family Foundation has donated another $500,000 to the cause, bringing its total gift up to $1.5 million.

The family has chosen to direct their support to the theatre in the Breaking the Silence gallery in honour of the victims of the Holodomor and other genocides.

The Friends’ campaign total is now $147.5 million, just $2.5 million short of the private sector goal.

The museum will officially open on Saturday.
