Donations Pour In To Help 106-Year-Old Who Danced With The Obamas At The White House
Centenarian Virginia McLaurin made headlines across the country late last month when she boogied with the Obamas at the White House.
And now, people across the Internet are showing their support for the 106-year-old who moved them with her moves.
Family and close friends of the centenarian have started a YouCaring fundraising page to help secure a living situation that's more accessible for the 106-year-old. McLaurin's friend and former neighbor Deborah Menkart explained to The Huffington Post that the centenarian, who is retired, currently has to walk up a difficult flight of stairs to get to her apartment.
"While she's very nimble and spry now, the thought is to ensure she has a secure living situation for the years ahead," Menkart said. "She's recognizing that ... she might not always be able to get up to her apartment and that would be a problem." The crowdfunding campaign, which was started earlier this week, had already generated more than $12,000 of the $50,000 goal as of Thursday afternoon.
