I live alone! Spectrum was able to offer to assess Sandra's home for energy efficiency improvements and discovered her old forced-air unit heated her attic more than her home, and that she had air leaks which caused drafts throughout her entire house.

Sandra plans to pay that kindness forward by volunteering with Spectrum in the future. The rising cost of living in Santa Clara County is surpassing the amount of monthly income received for the most vulnerable in our communities.
Particularly, it impacts households with fixed incomes: the elderly, the disabled, and families with children. Donna's family consists of her and her husband, and they spend most of their fixed income on essentials.
Because of the energy inefficiency of their home, a higher percentage of their household income goes towards energy related expenses. Donna's family purchased their home over 20 years ago, and their original priority was fixated on raising their children. After 30 years of employment, Donna made a decision to take an early retirement due to a knee injury. Her husband retired soon thereafter to care for his wife. They did not factor into their budget that they would need to use their savings to pay for their basic needs, which caused them to postpone any needed home repairs.
The lack of repairs made their home less energy efficient and inflated their bill during extreme weather. Making any upgrades to their home would require upfront expenses they could not afford, and it did not seem like an option worth pursuing.
