Drop of water

Join a tide of caring

When we turn on the tap, we expect clean water will flow freely. But for many who live in Hampton Roads, this is not their reality. Sudden unemployment or an unexpected disability can leave them with the tough decision of not paying their water or wastewater bill in order to afford paying another bill. Luckily, you can join the community and lend a hand through H2O.

Drop of water

Flood your community with kindness

In some cases, we have to turn families away because the donations we collect aren’t meeting the profound financial need in our communities. However, if we join together and find a way to increase our generosity to assist those who need it most, no community member will have to go without water service. There are several simple ways to help – including adding a donation to your utility payment.

⭐️Ferguson Donates $25,000 to Help to Others ⭐️

Were so excited to announce that Ferguson has donated $25,000 to the Hampton Roads Help to Others Program! Given through the company’s community engagement program, Ferguson Cares, the gift will help Hampton Roads families and individuals in danger of losing residential water service due to crises beyond their control.

“Ferguson shares H2O’s passion for improving water security in the communities we serve,” said Melissa Hazelwood, Ferguson Cares Director. “Water flows through everything we do, and we know first-hand the importance of access to clean water. We are pleased to support this important program.”

The H2O program is administered by the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission and HRSD in partnership with The Salvation Army Hampton Roads Area Command. Families or individuals in danger of losing residential water service due to a crisis can receive one-time financial assistance of up to $500 to pay their local water and wastewater bills. 

People can donate to H2O through PayPal; by check; or by adding a one-time donation to their HRSD/HRUBS online payment. H2O is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, making all program donations tax deductible. In addition, 100% of contributions are applied directly to the water or wastewater bill of someone in need in the local area. Donations are never used to cover the administrative costs of the program.
