Bill W.
William Griffith Wilson, also known as Bill Wilson or Bill W., is the co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous. AA is an international caring association with approximately 2 million members worldwide, belonging to approximately 10,000 alcoholic groups, associations, organizations, cooperatives and friendships aimed at helping other alcoholics achieve and maintain alertness. According to AA's Anonymous 12th Tradition, Wilson is commonly referred to as "Bill W." or "Invoice". In order to communicate with each other, “AA” members often ask people who seem to be in pain or relapse if they are “friends of Bill”. Although this question can be confusing, because "Bill" is a popular name, it provides a way to build relationships with people who are familiar with the quote and who need help.
