Craig Kelman & Associates Scholarship
As the publisher of Go with the Flow, the official publication of the Atlantic Canada Water and Wastewater Association, Craig Kelman & Associates has a deep appreciation for the readers and members of ACWWA whose task it is to ensure that water taken from and put back into our precious mother earth is clean and safe for the people, animals and plants whose very existence depends upon it. To demonstrate their admiration and respect for the association, its members and the water industry, they have established a yearly educational scholarship of $500 to be funded through a percentage of advertising sales generated in Go with the Flow.

Bill Butler Scholarship
Bill Butler was a lifelong contributor to the water and wastewater industry in Atlantic Canada and a very active member of ACWWA and AWWA. Bill spent much of his career at the Saint John City’s Water and Sewerage Department but ended his legacy as the Commissioner of Community Services in Saint John. Two of Bill’s biggest interests were people and water, combined with his appointment as President of Water for People – Canada from 1994 until his retirement. In whatever area Bill worked, he showed enthusiasm, professionalism and a true interest in the people he worked with. He gave those working in the water and wastewater sector a sense of team pride in providing such essential services to citizens. Bill Butler passed away in 2018. In his honour, ACWWA has established a yearly educational scholarship of $1500, where $1000 is awarded to the successful applicant, and $500 is donated to Water for People.
