When 11-year-old Max Woosey from the UK first set up a tent in his garden, he didn't expect to still be sleeping in it 500 nights later. But that's exactly what he's done — all to raise money for his local hospice.
North Devon Hospice took care of Woosey's friend and neighbor, Rick Abbott, before he died. However, when the UK went into its first coronavirus lockdown in March 2020, the hospice couldn't do its usual fundraising activities.
Abbott had given the boy his tent before dying. So Woosey decided to camp in his garden until the UK's lockdown ended to raise money for the hospice. Little did he know, the country's lockdown would continue for a year and a half.
"My friend Rick gave me his tent before he died and made me promise to have an adventure so that's what I'm doing," Woosey wrote on his JustGiving fundraising page.
The British weather didn't make it easy. Woosey camped in the wind, cold and even storms. He's camped in different places, too, including the ZSL London Zoo and the garden of 10 Downing Street, where UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson lives.
On August 10, 2021, Woosey celebrated his 500th night in the tent. His goal was to raise about $140, but he's now raised more than $880,000 — over half of what the hospice says it lost because of the pandemic.
Although Woosey has now achieved his goal of camping until the end of the UK's lockdown, he has no plans to stop. "This is me, this is what I do now," he said.

🌏Summary
Max Woosey是位來自英國11歲的小男孩。他的鄰居朋友Rick Abbott後來住進了北德文郡臨終醫院，受這家醫院所照顧。後來，因為英國在2020年3月受新冠疫情影響而封城，這家臨終醫院無法進行常態的募款活動。Abbott在過世前把他的帳篷送給Max。 Max決定，在英國解封前，他都會在花園露營，替這家臨終醫院募款。他恐怕做夢也沒到，英國的封城狀態持續了一年半之久。Max說到做到，不管風多大、雨多強、天氣多冷，他都在花園露營。
