Water Fund - sharing the essential

 

Need help paying your water/sewer bill? The Water Fund was established in 1994 by WSSC Water employees to help residential customers in financial need pay their WSSC Water bill. Eligible customers can access the Water Fund multiple times, up to $500 per year. The program is administered by The Salvation Army and funded by generous donations from WSSC Water customers, employees and community partners.
