(ANSA) - ROME, APRIL 30 - A 12-year-old girl, Chloe Andrews, swam the length of the English Channel in her small home pool in Dubai, to raise funds for the Doctors Without Borders campaign against coronavirus . It is a pool of just six meters, he reports to Arabiya online, noting that to cover a distance of about 50 kilometers, Chloe therefore had to make 7,700 tanks. "It was definitely difficult. It was probably more difficult than I thought," said Chloe, adding that she was inspired by British Army veteran centenary Tom Moore, who walked 100 laps in her garden to raise millions of pounds for the United Kingdom National Health Service. "We were delighted to learn about Chloe's fundraiser and are absolutely amazed at his persistence, dedication and ability to recover," said Mario Stephan, MSF executive director of the UAE. With his efforts, Chloe has made it possible to collect 15,000 dirhams so far, equal to about 3,800 euros. (HANDLE)
