Man on roof raising money for Exodus Place in Grand Rapids

GRAND RAPIDS (WOOD-AM) - Exodus Place is trying to raise thousands of dollars to pay its mortgage through a unique fundraiser.

Facilities Manager Chip Kroblan has been on the building's roof for more than a week and says he won't get down until their goal is met.

He's trying to raise $836,000.

As of this morning, they've raised just past $20,000.

"It hasn’t been too bad (and) the weather has been cooperating, but I would rather have it snow than rain,” Kroblan told WOOD-TV.

Exodus Place works to help men transition out of homelessness.

Kroblan came to Exodus Place initially as a member, accepting services to turn his life around.

Donations can be made here.
