Rich and Patti Schmitz have always been active members in the community and highly value service as well as education. Rich’s involvement with the technical programs at Hawkeye Community College inspired them to establish the Schmitz-Petitti Scholarship Fund. They hope this fund will provide deserving students with additional support while pursuing their careers.
