NEW YORK - APRIL 08: A group of woman look at historic images of immigrants at a museum on Ellis island on April 8, 2010 in New York, New York. The nonprofit in charge of restoring Ellis Island, the entry point into the United States for over 12 million immigrants between 1892 and 1954, is suffering from a lack of funds. Save Ellis Island needs to raise half a million dollars in the next few weeks or it will be forced to shut down its restoration projects. The Ellis Island Immigration Museum was opened in 1990 and is housed in the restored main building. The World Monuments Fund placed Ellis Island on a list of vulnerable sites in 1996 and 2006. Currently most of the buildings on the island's south side are in a state of disrepair.  (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
