SAGE Program Coordinator

About SAGE

SAGE is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that inspires people over 50 to “give forward” — with their time, money, and voice — so that younger and future generations can thrive. We promote generational equity, the idea that each generation has a responsibility to improve the quality of life for the next.

Our work focuses on three key areas: education, the environment, and the economy. Through awareness campaigns, training, and partnerships, our goal is to inspire over 1,000 individuals annually in taking meaningful action in their communities. We believe in the power of collective advocacy and intergenerational collaboration to build a better future.
