Our major program activity during 2022 was to produce a total of 10 live performances of Plays with Purpose, by seniors for seniors, with free admission. A total of 1,558 seniors were educated with tips to protect their well-being through attending or participating as volunteers in these activities. SAGES unique use of live theater for elder education had amazing results. The breakdown of the 1,558 seniors served is 1,360 senior guests formed audiences; 83 on-site senior volunteers composed the cast, crew, and ushers; 15 off-site senior volunteers posted notices online, distributed printed flyers or stuffed good bags for distribution; and an additional 100 senior guests attended our speaking engagements about these Plays with Purpose. SAGES' Spring season debuted a new theme in the comedy play Deal Maker. This play raises awareness on safe driving and the signs of impairment that indicate it's time to surrender a drivers' license. Tips within the script include safety measures for drivers and their vehicles and alternatives to driving that help maintain a degree of independence. A Q&A session with our partner agency, Florida Highway Patrol, concluded the productions. 0 39000 Our second program initiative was an outreach to specific underserved communities consisting of deaf seniors and Hispanic seniors within the Tampa Bay area. American Sign Language Interpreters (ASL) "signed" our play Phoney Baloney so guests who are deaf could still enjoy the play and learn the scam prevention tips presented on stage. And Denying Gravity, on fall prevention was performed entirely in Spanish to benefit the Hispanic community to protect themselves from the leading cause of injury and death for older adults. These plays were featured in our Fall season. 0 1500 Our third accomplishment in 2022 is a Readers Theater program specifically for seniors at two local community centers. The program has no memorization. Seniors who participate in the program as a group meet weekly as they decide on a theme, contribute literary pieces on the theme, and weave the pieces into a scene from an established SAGES' play to create their own original production. At the end of 8 weeks, their creation is presented as an event spotlighting the theme at their center. There were three successful presentations at the participating community centers. The program is being tweaked into the simplest format for seniors to conduct the program with minimal oversight. 0 1540 42040 Linda Goldman President 20 0 0 0 Gloria Smith Vice President 5 0 0 0 Graciela Armayor Secretary 5 0 0 0 Amy Lyn Howell Treasurer 6 0 0 0 Kelly McGuire Director 4 0 0 0 Michael Cote Director 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Linda Goldman 2618 Cove Cay Dr Unit 207 Clearwater FL 33760 7275367076 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 0 6850 41446 57260 98070 203626 0 0 0 6238 122 6360 0 6850 16266 0 0 23116 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 13700 57712 63498 98192 233102 0 0 0 0 0 0 5750 14700 20450 0 0 0 5750 14700 20450 212652 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 13700 57712 63498 98192 233102 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Program Production Expense;42304|Advertising;8322|Office Expense;1144|Insurance;1321|Legal;653|Travel and Training;631|Administrative;383^Total;54758^
