Detroit Water Project
Detroit Water Project
On the map since Apr 2015
Detroit Water Project matches people across the globe with Detroit residents without running water in their homes and facilitates direct donations to pay overdue water bills. To date, over $170,000 has been donated to turn the water back on for more than 900 families.
Community
In 2014 alone, more than 33,000 consumers had their water shut off due to the largest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history. Through the Detroit Water Project, donations are made to the nonprofit and then used to directly pay overdue and verified water bills of Detroit residents lacking resources to pay themselves.
