For the 7th consecutive year, "Kevin On The Roof" was held by the rooftop master, Kevin Fitzpatrick from the roof of Patriot Subaru. The 2022 goal was $60,000 - Wow!
You know how it goes. Kevin goes up to the roof, and refuses to leave until he can reach his fundraising goal, with every penny going to support STRIVE, the So. Portland organization that does so much for teens and young adults with all levels of developmental disabilities.
Support from the community, strong as ever, but it still takes time. 175 hours after going up, the 2022 goal was met, with a bit extra! $62,731 - incredible!
The 7 year total.... $326,771! Simply amazing.
Kevin is the leader, but it surely takes the amazing STRIVE crew who puts in many hours of ground support, as well as the many sponsors who contribute to the cause. Thanks to all of them for making it a big success!
