Click to Donate to "Kevin On The Roof". Every penny goes to STRIVE, serving teens and young adults with developmental disabilities.
On September 3rd, 2025, for the 10th consecutive year, "Kevin On The Roof" will put the intrepid Kevin Fitzpatrick on the roof of Patriot Subaru, and as always he'll refuse to come down until he reaches his fundraising goal for STRIVE. This time, the goal is......$85,000. We can do it, but it takes a lot of support!
Every penny donated goes to support STRIVE, the So. Portland organization that does so much for teens and young adults with all levels of developmental disabilities. Adding in this year, KOTR has earned over $480,000 which is simply amazing. How? Because the support is just as amazing! Community, friends, businesses, individuals, all coming together for a great cause. (That includes getting Kevin off the roof!)
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!
