Hunt Valley, Maryland (21 July 2022)—EA is proud to announce that Walter Migdal, Senior Project Manager, is a 2022 recipient of Water For People’s Kenneth J. Miller Founders’ Award. Established more than two decades ago, this award honors outstanding volunteers from Water For People committees and workplace giving partners.
“Water For People is important because they are making a major impact in the communities they serve,” said Walt. “Not only do they provide access to safe drinking water and sanitation, they provide hope for the people touched by these services and long-term sustainability of the infrastructure through partnering and training local resources to run and maintain the systems.”
Since 2019, Walt has supported Cycling For Water (CFW), a 501 (c) (3) charitable (non-profit) organization created in 2017 to help solve the global water and sanitation crisis through endurance cycling events. CFW has raised thousands of dollars through race team sponsorship. In 2019, Walt was part of a four-person team, including then Water For People CEO Eleanor Allen, which completed the grueling Race Across America, earning recognition for Water For People by securing the organization’s Jim Pitre Corporate Cup, which is awarded to the fastest team with at least 75% of members being associated with a single company. This year, he and teammate Jeff Boltz competed in the Race Across the West, riding nearly 900 miles from California to Colorado in less than 3 days while simultaneously raising funds for Water For People. In addition to his efforts through CFW, in 2021, Walt participated in EA’s 2nd annual move-a-thon companywide event and single-handedly raised approximately $2,400 for Water For People through pledges.
“Walt has long supported Water For People through EA’s workplace giving program,” said Abbie Smith, P.E., Vice President and Chair of the firm’s Water For People Committee. “He combines his strong personal commitment to helping people in a tangible way with his passion for endurance bicycling as a means to better the world through clean and safe drinking water and sanitation.”
EA has partnered with Water For People since 2016 as part of the Charitable Giving pillar of the firm’s Public Benefit Corporation framework. Since then, the firm and our employees nationwide have raised more than $656,000 through payroll or direct donations with a company match, one-time donations, and organized fundraising.
