An appropriation of $960,000 has been made available for planning in FY 1982, and a construction appropriation request for $36,500,000 is included as part of the President's FY 1983 budget pending before Congress.  Of the total nonappropriated contribution, approximately $27,500,000 has been raised to date from a variety of sources. This sum includes gifts and pledges which have been received from a broad range of donors, including individuals, foundations, domestic as well as foreign corporations, foreign governments.  Also included is a commitment of over $9,000,000 from the net revenues of Smithsonian auxiliary activities over a multiyear period.  Finally, proceeds from the sale or property currently occupied by the Museum of African Art, excluding the historic Frederick Douglass House, will also be applied toward the cost of construction.  Fund raising for the balance of the necessary nonfederal contribution is proceeding well.
