Isn’t it inhumane that those who can’t afford to pay their water bills can have their water supply shut off? The nonprofit organization The Human Utility thinks so. That’s why they have built a website to connect donors with people in need. With some documents like paystubs, people with overdue water bills can apply to have their water bills paid. Since its inception in 2016, the tiny nonprofit has paid the water bills for more than a 1,000 families near Baltimore and Detroit.
