Become a SAGE USA State Coordinator
Are you a social entrepreneur? If you think you have what it takes to become a leader in the SAGE network, please let us know! There are open positions for state coordinator positions.
The primary duties of a SAGE State Coordinator are:
- To identify and appoint (with approval from SAGE Home Office in California) regional SAGE coordinators in your state and to communicate regularly, by phone, fax, email, with all regional SAGE Coordinators during the period from September through June, ensuring the coordination and success of each regional program.
- To conduct a state SAGE event, identifying ONE SAGE champion and ONE First Runner-Up to represent at the World Cup competition in July or August each year.
- To seek operational grant funds to help SAGE expand its program.
- To enter into alliances and partnerships with organizations that support SAGE’s mission.
- To begin the process of recognizing SAGE as an official non-profit education organization recognized by your state (if it doesn’t already have such recognition).
- To keep the SAGE Continental Coordinator informed of all major activities of the state SAGE office, and to comply with all requests made by the SAGE Continental Coordinator. The SAGE North America coordinator is Mr. Pete Eimer, who can be reached at Pce633@aol.com. Pete will be happy to email you a copy of a SAGE State Coordinator Agreement.
