The Water Well Trust (WWT) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization created by the Water Systems Council. With its partner it provides loans (up to $15,000 at a 1% interest for a 20 year term) for wells for low‐income families that need safe drinking water. WWT serves people in the United States who live primarily in rural, unincorporated areas or minority communities that may be isolated and difficult to reach. They assist low‐income families who live in areas where the extension of public water supplies to serve them doesn’t make economic sense for them, for the public water supply owners, for federal, state or local funding sources.

Beneficiaries of the Water Well Trust are low-income families or individuals that have wells that are no longer functioning properly, have contamination issues that render the well unusable, or have no well or safe water source. The Water Well Trust also has funding for septic systems.
