Medicare... 174,000 Georgia Medicare beneficiaries who are without prescription drug coverage, yet don’t have to be. Prior to the introduction of the Medicare Part D pro gram in January 2006, mil lions of Medicare beneficiar ies lacked coverage for their prescription medicines. Today, 39 million of America’s 44 million benefi ciaries have prescription drug coverage - with more than 25 million enrolled in the Medicare Part D program. “During the country’s current economic crisis, many Continued from page 4 seniors are cutting back and watching their spending more than ever,” said Grealy. “The last thing that any senior should have to face is the choice between paying for prescription medications and paying the heating bill this winter. That’s why this bene fit is so important.” Medicare Today, a national partnership of more than 400 national and region al organizations committed to providing seniors with resources and support to eval uate and enroll in one of the prescription drug plans. “Loop It Up Savannah” Continued'from page 9 Street YMCA. “This way they not only have the satis faction of having accom plished something but they also get to learn about the importance of giving.” The concept, which started in a public grade school in upper state New York, has taken root all across the nation. This is the first such program in Savannah. “We love coming to Savannah!” says Mary Colucci, Executive Director of the Warm Up America Foundation, who has made several trips to Savannah and the West Broad Street YMCA to ensure the success of the program. “We have done this in many places, but it is always different, always special, and always reward ing. I think the greatest thing here has been how engaged everyone at the Y is. It's real ly funny to see these kids, boys and girls, scramble to get their homework done so they can come and work with the yam!” After the pilot program there are plans to expand with the number of volun teers and children at the first of the year. The eventual goal is that each child will make pieces of quilts, sweaters, and scarves that will be given to local home less shelters as well as elder ly persons in the neighbor hood.
