Smile Kentucky!

Improving public health and educating children and adults on the benefits of tap water is important to LWC.

We were one of the first cities in the United States to add flouride to the drinking water supply.  Our dental health partnership, Smile Kentucky! provides dental education to thousands of children and free treatment to hundreds.  Tooth decay is the number one chronic disease for children; in 2008 over 340 children received free dental care with Smile Kentucky!

Can you explain the "science" behind drinking water?  LWC's award winning education program brings science to life for thousands of students.  Over one hundred schools participate in education programs from erosion, filtration to handwashing!

Community organizations depend on Louisville Water to provide Pure Tap® at dozens of walks and runs.  Our employees fill nearly half-a-million bottles of  Pure Tap® each year.  In addition, schools, churches, businesses and customers receive empty bottles to fill, wash and reuse.
