Indiana American Water Gives More Than $295,000 to Its Communities in 2021

GREENWOOD, Ind., June 13, 2022–Indiana American Water today announced that it donated more than $295,000 last year to organizations in the communities it serves across the state through general charitable contributions and programming support. The American Water Charitable Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides grants and contributions where American Water employees live, work and operate, also donated $40,850 to 77 non-profit organizations in Indiana in 2021.

“In addition to providing safe, clean and reliable water and wastewater services to our customers, we are also committed to giving back to our partner communities,” said Indiana American Water President Matt Prine. “Our employees and their families live, work and engage in the communities we serve to make them better places. It is a core part of our values and who we are as a company.

“Whether it’s through supporting local charities and social service organizations, awarding environmental grants, or involvement in various community, economic development, and service organizations, we are active participants in every community we serve,” Prine continued. “Last year alone, our employees volunteered 1,065 hours in the communities we serve and nearly 150 times for local community events.”

Each year, Indiana American Water provides hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to its communities through its Environmental Grant Program, firefighter grants, support for economic development organizations, and other charitable contributions and community partnerships. Indiana American Water employees also donated to dozens of organizations across the state through United Way and the American Water Charitable Foundation’s volunteer and matching gift program.
