Thank you from Blood Cancer United, Southern States Subaru! - Tasha M
For the past 11 years, Subaru of America and its retailers have partnered with Blood Cancer United through the Subaru Loves to Care initiative. The partnership has involved delivering blankets and messages of hope to cancer patients across the country. On June 26th, Southern States Subaru personally delivered these items to Duke Cancer Center - Raleigh. These blankets and messages of hope provide warmth and comfort to cancer patients during treatment. This year, Southern States Subaru will also support the Blood Cancer United Urgent Need Program - Pediatric, Adolescent and Young Adult Fund, which will provide five blood cancer patients financial relief to help offset non-medical costs associated with treatment, such as transportation, food, housing, utilities, etc. The love and support shared through this cherished partnership means a lot to everyone involved! Thank you for supporting the Blood Cancer United mission to create a world without blood cancer and improve the quality of life for patients and their families.
Southern States Subaru Supports Local Shelter Animals Through Love Mutts Donation Drive - Taylor B
At Southern States Subaru, our commitment to the Subaru Love Promise extends to our four-legged friends as well. Through a partnership supporting Love Mutts, our dealership hosted a donation drive to collect dog food for local animal shelters and rescue organizations. The response from both our customers and employees was incredible. Throughout the campaign, bags of dog food continued to fill our collection area as members of our community came together with a shared goal: helping animals in need. The generosity displayed by everyone involved demonstrated just how much people care about the well-being of shelter pets waiting for their forever homes. While it is impossible to know exactly how many animals benefited from the donations, the impact was undeniable. There were so many bags of food collected that countless dogs received meals they might not otherwise have had. Thanks to the support of our customers and staff, many shelter animals were able to go to sleep with full stomachs and receive the care they deserve. This event served as a reminder that making a difference does not always require grand gestures. Sometimes, something as simple as donating a bag of dog food can improve the lives of animals and provide much needed support to the organizations that care for them every day. Southern States Subaru is proud to partner with causes that strengthen our community and support the well-being of both people and pets.
Southern States Subaru Brings Holiday Hope Through Toys for Tots - Taylor B
At Southern States Subaru, supporting our community goes far beyond the showroom. During the holiday season, our dealership proudly partnered with Toys for Tots to help bring joy to local children and families who might otherwise go without gifts during Christmas. Through the generosity of both our customers and employees, we collected toys that helped brighten the holidays for more than 20 children in our community. Every donation represented more than just a toy, it was a reminder that people care and that no one has to face difficult times alone. For me, this event carried a deeper personal meaning. Just months before joining Southern States Subaru, my family was impacted by Hurricane Helene. Like many families recovering from the storm, we were focused on rebuilding and getting back on our feet. During that challenging time, my manager at Southern States Subaru donated toys for my child through the Toys for Tots program. That simple act of kindness brought comfort and joy to our family during a stressful time. Being able to help organize and participate in the same program that affected my own family was incredibly meaningful. It reminded me that the Subaru Love Promise is not just something we talk about, it is something we live every day. Through supporting customers, coworkers, or neighbors in need, Southern States Subaru is committed to making a positive difference in the lives and communities of those around us.
