Museum Foundation profile and relationship with the National Museum

The Museum Foundation of the Philippines has partnered with the National Museum for over a quarter of a century. It had advocated for three national landmark American colonial-era buildings to house the museum's collections and supported the charters under which the museum operates. The two institutions have since continued to raise awareness, appreciation, and pride of our historical and cultural heritage.

To date, Museum Foundation of the Philippines aims to develop a museum-going habit among Filipinos and expands its support to all museums in the country.
