Amanda Smith (January 23, 1837 – February 24, 1915) was an American Methodist preacher and former slave who funded the former Amanda Smith Orphanage and Industrial Home for Abandoned and Destitute Colored Children in Harvey, Illinois. She was a leader in the Holiness movement, preaching the doctrine of entire sanctification throughout Methodist camp meetings across the world. This photograph of Smith was taken around 1885 and is in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery.

I took contact with Wikipedia in January of 2007. The idea of a free encyclopedia with the aim of having an important part of the common knowledge of humanity felt irresistible so since then I try to help improving this huge work.
