The WVWA relies on the community for its financial support. We depend on revenue from
dues and tax-deductible contributions and gifts to manage and maintain our properties, to
pay our dedicated staff, and to provide for future land acquisitions.
If your company or business has a contributions program, please bring the WVWA to their
attention. Formal presentations are readily available. If they provide matching gift
funds, your contributions become even greater.
You may become a member by filling out our membership form on the
