帮助支付水费

如果您在支付水费方面需要帮助,请务必在意识到经济困难后立即寻求帮助,以免停水。

Help is available through:

  • local water assistance programs
  • low-income water bill program available through the state of Maryland
  • local organizations
  • payment programs through your water company

First, talk with your water provider about your financial situation to avoid having your water turned off.

您可以延长到期日或制定其他付款安排。

WSSC 水援助计划

例如,如果 WSSC Water(蒙哥马利和乔治王子县)是您的自来水公司,您可能有资格参加多项援助计划。

水基金 每年向符合条件的客户提供最多 $500。救世军运行这个程序。

The Water Fund is an income-eligible program for families at or below 200% of the federal poverty level. Funds are available on a first-come, first-served basis. If capacity is reached for a month, the next appointment is the first Monday of the following month.

WSSC Water also offers extended due dates and convenient payment plans. The payment plans can be extended to 36 or 48 months, depending on whether you are a Customer Assistance Program (CAP)- Approved Customer.

If you’re a tenant, you need the landlord's (owner’s) approval to set up a payment plan for your water bill.

There may also be special programs in your county to help with payments.

这些仅是 WSSC Water 的示例,但其他水务公司可能会提供类似或额外的水资源援助计划。

211 可以帮助您确定有助于支付社区水费的计划。

巴尔的摩市水费单

如果你住在 巴尔的摩市, the Water4All discount program helps create more equitable access to water assistance. It's a yearly program. You must reapply every year.

Water4All is an income-eligible program for households making below 200% of the federal poverty level. While income guidelines can change, a Baltimore City family of four earning less than $55,500 a year would recently qualify.
