About Bay Area Older Adults, Inc.

Bay Area Older Adults (BAO) is a San Jose–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that organizes outdoor, cultural and social programs for adults age 50+ and provides a centralized resource guide so older adults can plan their own activities. The organization runs BAO Events (staff-organized day trips, hikes and cultural outings) and a “Plan Your Own” guide that aggregates regional activities, with membership options that offer event discounts and program perks.

Founded in 2008 and operating as a California public benefit corporation, BAO focuses on healthy-living, social connection and community-building for older adults of all abilities. In recent years the organization has maintained multi-year program delivery, published up-to-date governance documents and annual reports, and filed consecutive IRS Form 990s showing positive net assets and steady contributed support.

Notable achievements

Sustained positive net assets (FY2024)

Sustained community partnerships

Built ongoing partnerships with local public and philanthropic institutions (including county and city agencies, regional open space organizations and community foundations) to support program delivery and outreach.
