ABOUT US 
Created by Marion Utilities in June of 2013, H2O Community (Help to Our Community) Fund provides low-income families and individuals with financial assistance on their monthly utility bill when experiencing financial hardship, such as losing a job, an injury, or something else that causes financial strain.

At Marion Utilities, we have a strong desire to ensure that the people of Marion have access to high quality utility services and are committed to helping them as much as we can so that they can afford a monthly payment.

We have partnered with The Salvation Army, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide for the needy, to help struggling families by providing a payment supplement to keep their water on. This supplement is need-based and can extend up to $75 per year. We have also partnered with Via Credit Union to provide these families with financial education through budgeting classes so that they may become financially stable.

Come out to Matter Park to experience all of the fun activities for the Community! 

The course is relatively flat.
