Organizations Filed Purposes:
To develop, produce, direct and otherwise offer education and support for intergenerational experiences for the purpose of alleviating negative issues faced by older Americans.
Produced a free, live performance of a Play with Purpose that educates older adults on scams that target them by phone and empowers them with simple tools to prevent financial loss. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the SAGES director and actors learned to use Zoom for rehearsals. The show was staged in September. Afterwards, audience members spoke up on scams that personally victimized them. To achieve these revelations was an accomplishment. The Federal Trade Commission reports the largest group to avoid reporting scams is older adults. Our play validated that scams dont happen because the victim is stupid. Scammers are actors. SAGES use of theater to arm the audience with education is fighting fire with fire. Our cast of older actors is determined to stop scams that target our vulnerable elderly population. Produced a Safe-at-Home DVD Kit, free to sites covered by grants. The kit includes a film of a live Play with Purpose that motivates older adults to reduce their risk for falls. The DVD is viewed in small groups where residents age 55+ live. Surveys completed afterwards have viewers make checkmarks on 17 possible actions they will take to reduce their fall risks. Top actions are: Exercise more regularly, Recommend this play to others, and Share what I learned with someone else. The commitment to share means the viewer became an advocate. SAGES received the Florida Council on Agings 2020 Senior Vision Media Award for presenting a positive image of aging. Other venues purchased the kit and also skits by our actors to use as public service announcements on websites.
