The Water Fund was established in 1994 by WSSC Water employees to help residential customers in financial need pay their water/sewer bills. Since then, nearly $3.2 million has been distributed to more than 28,200 Montgomery and Prince George’s County residents.
WSSC Water pays the administrative and promotional fees while The Salvation Army assists clients and manages the fund, so that 100 percent of all donations go directly to those in need. Customers can make multiple requests for assistance with water and sewer bills, up to $500 per year. Please make a tax-deductible donation today to the WSSC Water Fund. Your tax-deductible donation ensures that your neighbors will continue to have access to clean, safe and reliable water. 100% of all donations go directly to those in need.
There are several easy ways to donate and support local families:
- Donate online using your credit or debit card at PayPal
