The Foundation has been funded entirely by the family of Nasreen and Hasan Askari (“the Family”). The premises for the Foundation and the Haveli have been provided by the Family free of cost, on a ten year license, as have the objects that will be on display.The Family do not intend to seek support from either public or private sources until such time as the Haveli is open for viewing. Once the Haveli is operational, the Foundation hopes to be able to attract financial assistance from other sources to support specific requirements such as Acquisitions of Objects, Conservation, Repair and Restoration of the premises or an extension to the museum building. These funds will be segregated so that any donations received may only be used for the specific purpose for which they have been donated. All donations to the Foundation are tax free in Pakistan as per the FBR letter of August 21, 2023 under sub-Clause (c) of Clause (36) of sections 2 of the Income Tax Ordinance 2001 read with Rules 212 and 220 of the Income Tax Rules 2002. All donations, however large or small, will be acknowledged.
