Kentucky American Water’s H20 Help to Others Program™ provides financial assistance for our income-eligible, residential water and wastewater customers in need. The program is funded through a corporate donation as well as customer and employee donations.

We offer the H20 Help to Others Program™ for our income-eligible, residential water and wastewater customers who find themselves unable to pay their Kentucky American Water bill(s).

Residential customers qualify for assistance if funds permit and if they meet the following guidelines:

  • The customer must have paid at least $25 toward their water bill in the 180 days prior to applying for assistance.
  • Customer must have a balance of at least $50 outstanding on account.


The maximum grant is $250. Qualifying customers may receive one grant per calendar year, while funds permit. Exceptions may be made in extreme situations.
