What's AARP?
AARP, the American Association of Retired Persons, is a United States-based non-governmental organization and interest group, founded by Dr. Ethel Percy Andrus in 1958 and based in Washington, D.C. According to its mission statement, it is "a nonprofit, nonpartisan membership organization for people age 50 and over, dedicated to enhancing quality of life for all as we age," which "provides a wide range of unique benefits, special products, and services for our members."
AARP operates as a non-profit advocate for its members and as one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the United States, and it also sells insurance, investment funds and other financial products. AARP claims over 40 million members, making it one of the largest membership organizations in the United States.
