Patriot Partner: CrossCountry Mortgage
Going the Distance for Northeast Ohio’s Military Community
This fall, CrossCountry Mortgage has shown again and again what it means to stand behind those who serve.
On Sunday, November 8, CrossCountry Mortgage presented the Cleveland Metroparks Veterans Day 5K at Edgewater Park. About 350 runners and walkers, including roughly 100 veterans, kicked off Veterans Day week along Lake Erie, and thanks to CrossCountry Mortgage, proceeds from the race benefit NEOPAT’s work supporting veterans, service members, and military families. [Add the amount raised, if you want to share it.]
CrossCountry Mortgage is also investing in the next generation. The CrossCountry Mortgage Student Scholarship offers ten $1,000 awards to Northeast Ohio high school students in grades 9–12 who are part of military families or participate in JROTC. Applications are open now and close March 1, 2027.
The partnership reaches the gridiron, too. CrossCountry Mortgage made it possible for NEOPAT to invite members of local veteran and military employee resource groups, along with other veterans and service members, to hold the flag during the national anthem at the Cleveland Browns Salute to Service game against the Houston Texans on November 15.
NEOPAT is grateful to CrossCountry Mortgage for its continued partnership and its commitment to honoring service in ways our community can see, feel, and share in. Together, we’re turning gratitude into action for military families across Northeast Ohio.
