Charlotte R. Schmidlapp Fund Scholarship

Fifth Third Bank, Trustee

In 1908, Jacob Godfrey Schmidlapp created the Charlotte R. Schmidlapp Fund to memorialize his young daughter who was killed at the age of 19. The Fund, created to “ennoble, empower and uplift” young women and girls, began by awarding interest-free loans to aid young women in pursuit of higher education. 115 years later, the Fund is still supporting the clients of the YWCA. In 2008, the Charlotte R. Schmidlapp Fund, Fifth Third Bank, Trustee, created an endowment for a scholarship to provide financial support for women participating in YWCA programs.
