The Santa Clara Valley Water District donated $1 million to Sacred Heart Community Service so the agency can in turn help struggling families pay their water bills.
Last year, Sacred Heart helped 1,700 families pay their water bills. It expects to help even more this year."It's really important that we develop new partnerships to make sure families get what they need and they're not having to make difficult decisions like medical bills or taking care of basic needs like food, clothing and water," Poncho Guevara with Sacred Heart said."It’s shocking at some level to actually see the level of need," he said.
More than 25,000 people per year walk though the doors at Sacred Heart, each finding it more and more difficult to make ends meet.
