Age Thrive Campaign

South Austin has the fewest resources for older adults in our community. An AGE facility will immediately transform this dire situation.

Community leaders and stake holders, including the St. David’s Foundation, have identified South Austin as a "senior services desert" and have prioritized efforts like the Thrive Campaign to radically improve access to needed care for South Austin residents.

Thrive Center South

A state of the art building that will extend the reach of our mission and services to South Austin which, studies have shown, is a services desert for older adults and caregivers. The facility will be a modern, bright and thoughtful space for AGE programming, and non-profit collaboration.

The Lobby

The lobby will be a warm and welcoming place for older adults, caregivers, and those working within the building. Upon entrance, guests will be warmly greeted by a receptionist before accessing AGE programming, browsing the resource and information wall, heading to the co-working space or beginning the workday.

Locker area

As members of the Thrive Social & Wellness Center enter they will find their own locker to safely store their personal items, and an area to relax and get settled before starting their day filled with activities and friends. The walls will be decorated with art made by their peers to help members begin their day with a sense of joy and community.

Garden

Thrive Social & Wellness Center members will enjoy a beautiful garden that will include raised garden beds to grow vegetables, a pergola to provide shade, seating areas where they can enjoy the sun and games, and landscaping intentionally designed with the safety of our members in mind.

Activity Room

The Center will be equipped to provide a variety of spaces for activities, relaxation, socialization, and entertainment. In addition to offering members a rich menu of activities to participate in throughout the day, we also plan to include inter-generational programming so that youth and older adults can learn and benefit from each other.

Naming Opportunities

Contributions made to the Thrive Campaign can be recognized throughout various impactful naming opportunities. Gifts can be made in honor or memory of a loved one and recognition will visible at AGE’s South Austin facility. 

AGE has a bold vision for the future and your generosity is an important part of making this vision come true.
