Group That Delivers Valentine's Day Gifts to Seniors Gets a Big Surprise

This year due to COVID-19, Cupid Crew volunteers organized by Wish of a Lifetime from AARP are sending cards for Valentine's Day instead of the roses and other gifts they usually deliver to seniors who live alone or in assisted living communities, reports the Today Show . To help in this regard, the organization partnered with the Girl Scouts to get even more cards in the hands of seniors. Cupid Crew participants Laura Larson and her family are dedicated volunteers, and the Today Show teamed up with sponsor Planters to recognize their contributions. Larson received surprise Valentine's Day gifts herself, including flowers, chocolates, and balloons. Every resident of RiverPointe Senior Living of Littleton, Colo., also will receive special Valentine's Day gifts in Larson's honor. Planters is additionally donating $20,000 to Wish of a Lifetime from AARP to help continue the Cupid Crew's efforts.
