Southeast Rural Community Assistance Project, Inc. (SERCAP) is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit Organization which assists small rural towns and communities needing aid in upgrading their water and wastewater systems. SERCAP also provides training and technical assistance to rural residents for operation and maintenance of those systems, for capacity building and for economic development in their communities.

Funding is made available to low-income individuals and communities in the form of grants and loans in order to rehabilitate housing, build water and wastewater infrastructure, assist in small business development, and to finance development projects of small rural governments.

SERCAP utilizes volunteers in a variety of programs to conduct these projects, to train community leaders, and to train and recruit additional local volunteers.

Created in the 1960s and with its central office in Roanoke, Virginia, SERCAP serves the seven states of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. To date, SERCAP has brought clean water and wastewater facilities to more than 450,000 residents in our seven state network.
