A new monthly luncheon called Equal Portions-Food, Friendship and Fun, had seniors enjoying a catered lunch, along with an educational or entertaining presentation.

Light household chores, short term equipment loans, clothing and textile repairs, home safety checks, requested social visits, technology support, grocery delivery, seasonal lawn/garden help are examples of other requested services performed by volunteers. The office maintains a list of referrals for chores that require more than our volunteers can provide. SAPAS independent contractor handyman will perform minor handyman services such as light switches, leaky faucets, grab bars, window locks, changing doorknobs, closet door repairs, etc. to keep seniors safe in their own home. If requested, our handyman will make the trip to the store and purchase supplies as needed.

Clinics are offered at no charge and available to everyone regardless of age or residency. Monthly clinics are held in the senior housing apartment complexes in our service area and do not require appointments. This past year our volunteers, who contributed 47 hours, served unique 64 people with 224 BP checks. SAPAS contracted with independent registered nurses trained in foot care to provide clinic-style visits at two locations, as well as in-home visits, to trim toenails and take care of seniors' feet. SAPAS office staff register the senior, explain the fee-for-service rates and connect them with the right nurse for their first visit. Income qualified seniors receive the service at a reduced rate. Convenient appointments are made between the senior and the nurse. This past year the two RN nurses served 100 seniors with 330 visits.

Volunteers provide short-term respite for caregivers caring for seniors. Caregivers can leave the residence for appointments, a walk, an event, etc. Visits are usually two hours or less. Volunteers do not do any personal care during these visits. Visits can be an ongoing arrangement between the volunteer and caregiving family.

RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990, Part III, Line 2 In November 2024 St Anthony Park Area Seniors hosted a workshop funded by a supplementary DHS grant designed to give us ideas on generating new activities and services for underserved populations. It was attended by staff, board members, clients and small business owners. Part of the DHS grant also enabled our handyman to install free handrails and grab bars in seniors' homes and apartments. We started a new exercise program called Pound Fit and launched an activity called Equal Portions, whereby we host a monthly luncheon accompanied by a musical performance or informational presentation. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b A PDF of Form 990, with the donor information on Schedule B redacted, will be downloaded into the organization's online filing system -the Drop Box-which requires a password and authority to access. An email will be sent to each board member with a link to the document in the Drop Box. At the regularly scheduled board meeting in September, the board will approve the submission of the 990 to the IRS. Board approval of the submission to the IRS will be noted in the minutes of the meeting. Donor names on Schedule B will be erased, as the donors wish to remain anonymous. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c Before the first board meeting of each fiscal year, each board member is given a Conflict-of-Interest form. Each board member then declares whether he/she has any conflicts of interest. If none, the board member designates by writing "None." If there is a potential conflict of interest, the board member declares the nature and extent of that conflict. The board member will recuse themselves from any vote where a conflict of interest exists. Before each board meeting, the board chair asks if there are any potential conflicts of interest for the agenda items for that board meeting. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 Each year the board chair distributes a written questionnaire to the board members to evaluate the performance of the Program Director. The board chair then reviews this input with the Program Director and meets with the treasurer to determine whether to give the Program Director a raise and the amount of the raise. The recommendation is voted on by the board members at a regularly scheduled board meeting. The Program Director evaluates the performance of the two part-time Program Coordinators and, in consultation with the treasurer and board chair recommends raises, if any, which the board votes on at a regularly scheduled board meeting. Changes in compensation are reflected in the upcoming annual budget. Increases are effective with the start of the next fiscal year. The review of the program director was completed in April 2025. At the regularly scheduled board meeting in May 2025, a raise of 4% effective 7/1/2025 was approved. A bonus was approved and paid to staff, including the program director, in June 2025.
