Jay Abate from Summit has been a SAGE volunteer since 2018, delivering Meals on Wheels and making breakfast for clients of Spend-A-Day medical adult daycare. Jay jokes that he makes terrible coffee, but SAGE “kept me on as a volunteer anyway for all these years.” Recently, Jay was scheduled to deliver Meals on Wheels in Summit when his car wasn’t available. But that didn’t stop Jay because he didn’t want to disappoint his participants. He made his deliveries on his bicycle that day, even though it was during the multi-day heat wave where temperatures we close to one hundred. Click here for read the full interview article.

Annually, more than 200 volunteers help SAGE support seniors to age at home. They have discovered how rewarding it is to make a difference in the lives of older adults in our community! To learn more about ways you can help us, from delivering meals to supporting our office, contact Gerald Lewis at 908-598-5517 or glewis@SageEldercare.org.
