This May, we’re celebrating National Pet Month with stories from amazing pets who remind us why warmth and home matter so much.

When hard times hit, no family should have to choose between food, medicine, warmth…or their beloved pets. That’s where the Washington Area Fuel Fund (WAFF) steps in. Since 1983, we’ve helped over 320,000 neighbors in the DMV stay warm when no other help was available.

Why heating assistance in May? Unpaid winter bills can cause cascading hardship. With your assistance, we can help keep families and their pets together.

Fact: Did you know the average cost for a month of dog food is now $50? Helping with heating bills leaves money for pet essentials.

WAFF families and their pets thank you for your generosity!
