On November 1, non-profit Water1st International hosted their annual Give Water Give Life gala at the Fremont Studios in Seattle.
Coluccio Law attorney Kevin Coluccio, and his wife Margie Duckstad, were honored as Water1st Ambassadors of the Year for 2019.
The work of making sure every person has clean water is as important as it gets.
Water1st has been leading the way on this front for nearly 20 years.

Water1st: Why we Walk for Water in Seattle
Last year, the law firm dedicated a water site in Bangladesh in the name of a 15-year-old boy who had been killed in a semi-truck crash. Kevin & Margie’s teenage son was a volunteer on-site at the dedication.
A clean water legacy for a teenage crash victim.
