octopus12345년 이하Hooray! Even at 100 years old he persevered and kept going. Sadly he died 2 months ago, but his legacy will live on! Donations are still pouring in.- octopus12345년 이하When the campaign ended on Tom's 100th birthday at the end of the day, £32,796,475 had been raised, plus £6,173,663.31 expected from tax rebates. That's £38,9701,38.31 altogether! Congratulations! When I said donations are still pouring in they are, because the Tom Moore Foundation is still open for donation.
