the UNCF follows the lead of the American Association of Retired Persons, which in 1999 legally changed its name to AARP to reflect that its focus had expanded beyond that of just American retirees and to capture more aging baby boomers.

I'll give an example of your comment. My mom bought me a membership in AARP for my 50th b-day. I asked her if she wasn't making herself feel old by having a daughter in AARP.
By the way, I never renewed and they still send me the magazine and newspaper.
