Owego man walks 16 miles to work to raise money for veterans
(WIVT/WBGH) – An Owego man trekked through the heavy rain to raise money for a local veteran's agency. Mark Cooke is a Bedding Buyer for Olum's Furniture and Appliances. On Friday, he participated in the company's second annual 'Walking for Clear Path' fundraising event. Cooke once again walked from his home on Lisle Road in Owego to the Olum's in Vestal. Overall, he walked 16 miles to work. Cooke says last year, the event raised $6,500 for Clear Path for Veterans. This year, the goal was set at $10,000. Clear Path for Veterans supports veterans and active-duty service members. It offers free access to vital programs and services as well as peer support. Cooke says, 'Thank you' to those who have served. 'Veterans don't really get the recognition they deserve, particularly after service. Whether you believe in conflict or don't, the fact is people put their lives on the line for us, and they deserve more,' said Cooke. Donations have been made by sponsors, bedding companies, and community members. Cooke says presenting the check is the best part of the event. Olum's is still collecting money.
