Senior Adults for Greater Education (S.A.G.E.)

Connect senior volunteers with schools to support teachers, engage seniors, and enrich education. Our administrative board of volunteers is constantly pursuing the grant opportunities that allow us to offer our program at a minimal cost to the districts, as we understand the impact of budget constraints. The cost of a volunteer coordinator can be a substantial annual expense. The S.A.G.E.™ program offers the same service – in addition to our years of experience – at a significantly lower cost to the district. Utilizing the expertise of the older community members for the benefit of the schools allows all community members to feel connected and a part of the educational process! After the school year, a celebration is provided to commemorate the successful relationships that were formed or deepened throughout the year. This furthers the commitment of our volunteers and their teacher partners to continue in each successive year.
