99-Year-Old Veteran Raises Millions for Charity Doing Laps in His Garden

Quarantine didn't stop one 99-year-old WWII veteran from raising millions of dollars for charity!

Captain Tom Moore raised over $9 million donations to the United Kingdom's National Health Service by doing laps in his garden. As his original goal was just $1250, Tom told news outlets that the tidal wave of contributions is "completely out of this world."

"Let's all carry on and remember that things will get better," Moore said while speaking to BBC News. "We have had problems before — we have overcome them — and we shall all overcome the same thing again."
