MISSION STATEMENT The William E. Schmidt Foundation supports organizations that create true and lasting change in their communities by impacting as many people as possible though the arts, education and youth programs. Inspired by Anna Lee Schmidt Hamilton (who was known for her reputation as a vocal artist, instructor, and patron of the arts), the Foundation was formed in Indiana in 1992 with the love, support, and guidance of Anna Lee’s brother, Mr. Schmidt, and his extended family. Mr. Schmidt’s family is still actively involved in the operation and mission of the Foundation today.
