About

1881 Society

Water Equation recognizes its generous donations with the 1881 Society and Giving Circles. These philanthropic leaders recognize the importance of training and educating our current workforce while advancing future generations of water professionals. They also recognize the importance of safe and clean water delivery for all communities.

Members of the 1881 Society annually donate $1000 or more to AWWA Water Equation. The 1881 Society is named after the year AWWA was established by 22 visionaries seeing the need to collaborate and to build a vital Association.

Donors are also recognized for cumulative giving in AWWA’s Giving Circles named for notable AWWA members.

Your gift will recognize the importance of properly maintaining and advancing future generations of water professionals and systems. Gifts of cash, stock, securities, and documented estate gifts will be used to advance innovation, technology, global growth, and support future leaders. Together, we will ensure success beyond what was envisioned many years ago.
