Virginia American Water announced that two nonprofit environmental organizations have each received $3,000 through the company’s Environmental Grant Program to advance protection of water resources.
Petersburg-based Friends of the Lower Appomattox River, which works to protect the Appomattox River and promote its natural beauty and history, will use its grant to install informational and interpretive signage at significant points along the river. The signage will increase awareness of the river’s amenities and encourage protection of its resources.
