A Gift of Wheels For the Man Who Walks 20 Miles to Work
A 56-year-old man who's been walking 21 miles a day, five days a week roundtrip to get to work for several years is set to get the lift of a lifetime after hundreds of people donated more than $60,000 in one day to help him get a car, and many more donations continued pouring in as of Monday evening.
A story in Sunday's Detroit Free Press by Bill Laitner about the arduous commute of James Robertson who has a perfect attendance record at Schain Mold & Engineering in Rochester Hills where he's worked for more than 12 years, sparked the heartwarming movement to get Robertson a car.
