We are proud of the work we’ve accomplished so far with other like-minded progressive orgs, but there’s much work still to be done.

A Fundraiser for THE HUMAN UTILITY
PAST September 12, 2019
Water is a Human Right.
In places such as Detroit, Baltimore, and other cities in the United States, families unable to afford their water bills have their water service disconnected.
When this happens, kids can't bathe, people can't wash dishes, and grandparents can't flush their toilets. In extreme situations, people have had their homes taken away and lose custody for their kids over an unpaid water bill.
Besides paying water bills for families in need, THE HUMAN UTILITY’S ultimate goal is policy change. Water is the one utility in Michigan that isn’t regulated. While Detroit’s median income is less than half the national average, the average Detroit water bill is twice the national average. The Human Utility is working with politicians and activists in Michigan to pass legislation that makes water a regulated, affordable utility. Water is a human right.
