A major fundraising drive was launched on 10 October 2000 to redevelop the ageing St Kilda Road building and although the state government committed the majority of the funds, private donations were sought in addition to federal funding. The drive achieved its aim and secured $15 million from the [[Ian Potter]] Foundation on 11 July 2000, $3 million from [[Loti Smorgon]], $2 million from the Clemenger Foundation, and $1 million each from [[James Fairfax]] and the [[Pratt Foundation]].<ref>National Gallery of Victoria, [http://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/ngv_corp_annualreport_2000_01.pdf Annual Report 2000–2001] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190330124551/https://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/ngv_corp_annualreport_2000_01.pdf |date=30 March 2019 }}</ref>
