Captain Tom Moore

We often think we can't accomplish much on our own, but Captain Tom Moore in England who has survived WWII and is approaching his 100th birthday, wanted to help the British National Health Service Charities and came up with the idea of walking laps in his garden, one for each year of his life. His goal was a thousand pounds. He has now completed his 100th lap accompanied by the British Army - an astonishing 13 million pounds has been raised.

Update: As of April 24 Captain Moore has raised 28,000,000 pounds. A picture has been painted of him which will be raffled to raise even more money.
