The mission of AGE is to empower growth and repurposing for midlife and beyond, and thanks to the generous support of our donors, we were able to impact thousands of lives in 2022. Our grants supported Modern Elder Academy scholarships, the creation of Generations Over Dinner and amazing organizations focused on long life learning, midlife transitions, intergenerational connections and overcoming ageism.

We hope that you will consider supporting AGE with a donation this Holiday Season, so that we can continue this important work in 2023. Donating in honor of someone you love also makes a fantastic holiday gift!

Through the Modern Elder Academy Scholarship Fund, donors can make a tax-deductible gift to support scholarships, removing barriers to access and helping to create a diverse and inclusive MEA community. AGE has provided dozens of scholarships for MEA workshop participants, and we were proud to support the first Black Modern Elder workshop this year (the beautiful cohort is pictured above). MEA, the world's first Midlife Wisdom School, is dedicated to midlife reinvention and committed to socioeconomic diversity – check out the testimonials below from some of our scholarship recipients.

We are also proud to have funded the creation and launch of Generations Over Dinner, a dinner party challenge to gather multiple generations at the table and discuss important topics through the lens of each generation. Thanks to AGE and our donors, Generations Over Dinner is a completely free initiative, and has already reached thousands of people across the globe, from every generation. Check out the video below and visit the Generations Over Dinner site to learn more; we encourage you to host a dinner this holiday season or in the new year!

As always, our hearts are filled with gratitude...thank you for being on this journey with us.
