Betty White is a national treasure. She has become an icon to multiple generations for multiple differing reasons. And she is set to turn 100 years young in January. (I’m personally planning on taking the month off work to celebrate.)

Fans have stepped up on Twitter (and other outlets) to try to protect her in light of crossing into the triple digits.

We love us some Betty White!
