Honoring the von Trapp
and Whitehead Heritage
Encourage solutions
towards peace.
Humans are wired for 'connection', an internal anchor that binds us together. Through a sense of connection to our self, family, history, and overall humanity, we can lead fuller, more peaceful lives.

Our focus...
We focus on having an impact by raising awareness of the importance of music and art in our lives, encouraging solutions towards peace, and highlighting 'that which is not remembered is lost'. Our projects are to give-back, preserve & share history, and suggest resources on how to discover your roots.
Through our projects and by exploring our family's stories, we hope to inspire you to incorporate music and art in your life, make a difference in your community, research your own heritage, and discover more about culture and history.
Mission
The mission of the Georg & Agathe Foundation is to Champion the Arts, Promote Peace, and Archive & Educate. Our mission is represented in our logo by the music clef, anchor, and pen. Together, these represent a stylized sailing ship (sail, ship's body, and crow's nest), symbolizing humanity's journey.
Highlight 'that which is not
remembered is lost'.
It is important to collect and share stories, for that which is not written down is forgotten. Knowing our past is illuminating and can help us better understand our present. Often, the insights gained can become a steadying force in our lives.

ABOUT: Mission
Music Clef (Sail & Rudder)
Raise awareness to the importance
of music and art in our lives.
Far from being frivolous, science is proving the arts are fundamental to our wellbeing. It is the wind in humanity's sail, guiding our cultures, and crossing borders.
