Partnership with the Department of Social Services to Aid Neighbors in Need
Some of our neighbors are faced with losing essential services like safe and reliable drinking water because of financial struggles caused by illness, unemployment and more. Cape Fear Public Utility Authority (CFPUA) has teamed up with the New Hanover County Department of Social Services to help address these needs through CFPUA Assist: Neighbors Helping Neighbors. The program provides one-time financial aid for bill payment based on need. To receive assistance, customers may contact the Department of Social Services.
