The Water Buffalos include more than 40 members from the global water and wastewater industry who share a passion for motorcycles and the belief that everyone deserves access to clean drinking water. Each year, the Water Buffalos ride their motorcycles to the American Water Works Association\u2019s Annual Conference and Expo (ACE) to raise money and awareness for Water For People, an international nonprofit devoted to helping villages build and maintain safe water systems.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 2005, the Water Buffalos solicit contributions from companies and individuals for Water For People and ride thousands of miles to convene at the annual industry event.
