Join us on December 2, 2023 at The DC Wharf for the District's Holiday Boat Parade supporting the Washington Area Fuel Fund (WAFF). Through a charitable partnership with The Salvation Army, WAFF helps individuals and families in need pay their energy bills.

This free family-friendly event features over sixty beautifully decorated boats parading along up the Washington Channel, as well as fun landside holiday activities including ornament decorating, holiday karaoke, a signature music performance by the Royals, family photos with Santa, fireworks and so much more. More details are available at https://www.wharfdc.com/boatparade/.

Since 1983, WAFF has distributed nearly $33 million to help more than 300,000 households across D.C., Maryland, and Virginia pay their energy bills during times of hardship—no matter the fuel source, e.g., natural gas, propane gas, electricity, oil, coal, wood, kerosene, etc. WAFF supports energy solutions that make life go! Cooking, bathing, heating a home, and washing clothes are all necessities that require fuel. A small donation can help a family propel their lives forward. And 100% of WAFF donations go directly to individuals and families in need. To learn more, visit https://www.waffhelp.org.
