Meals on Wheels West and Subaru Share the Love® - Chris B
What an absolute pleasure it was to receive the generous donation from Subaru of America and Subaru Santa Monica for their Subaru Share the Love Event. Every December for every car sold Subaru donates $250 to the charity of the dealership's choice and we here at Meals on Wheels West are honored to be selected as one of their Hometown Charities! Our team is so lucky to have the longstanding partnership we have with GM Joey Boktor and his entire staff, thank you all so much!
Subaru Santa Monica Sharing the Love with Heal the Bay - Tracy Q
Heal the Bay was so honored to receive the 2023 Subaru Share the Love® check from Subaru of America and Subaru Santa Monica. In the month of December every car that was sold, $250 was donated to Heal the Bay and we are so fortunate to be selected as one of the Hometown Charities for Subaru Santa Monica. Our programming will benefit greatly from these funds and we can't thank Subaru Santa Monica enough!
Delivering More Than a Meal - Christian W
Meals on Wheels West has been partnering with Subaru Santa Monica for more than a decade. In addition to being a Hometown Charity of Subaru Santa Monica, Meals on Wheels West also collaborated with Subaru at the 2022 LA Auto Show. Subaru donated and, with support from the public at the event, assembled lunch bags that were then delivered to our clients. Meals on Wheels West is thankful for our close relationship with Subaru Santa Monica, Subaru of America, and the LAcarGUY Family of Dealerships for continuing to support our homebound neighbors in our community who are facing hunger and social isolation.
Subaru Loves to Help - The People Concern - K B
On Feb 14th, 2023 the awesome team at Subaru SM dropped off 1,000 pairs of socks to The People Concern in Santa Monica. Socks are the #1 requested item among the unhoused community and the team at People Concern are so grateful for this generous donation. Thanks again to GM Joey Boktor and their team of angels. We look forward to working together in the future. #SubaruLovesToHelp
Students love the animal books! - Laura Madrigal - Laura M
To Subaru Santa Monica, Thank you so much for this amazing donation. As a first year teacher it can be quite daunting to build up our classrooms so this will definitely go a long way. I have been looking into flexible seating because it can greatly benefit many students but they can get quite pricy. With your donations I will be able to offer this to my students along with more books to add to our growing library. My students love to animal books so I will definitely purchase a class set. Lastly, I will also be purchasing more classroom supplies like paint, chart paper, and folders. Thanks again, Laura Madrigal Stoner Avenue Elementary School
Adopt A Classroom - Paola Ornelas - Paola O
To Subaru Santa Monica, Thank you so much for this donation! I will be able to use this to provide the students utensils and materials that will encourage focus during lessons. I've been able to gather some fidget and sensory tools/pillows, but this will help me get enough for every one of my students. I will also be able to make this space feel welcoming by decorating with many different colors and posters as well as small reading corner rugs and calling posters. I am so thankful for the opportunity to create a safe, welcoming, and motivating classroom for all of my students. It is important not just for myself as the teacher, but for the school as well to provide students with the time to work and develop their social-emotional needs, which will be addressed by buying them fidgets and motivational/feelings posters. Thanks again, Paola Ornelas Stoner Avenue Elementary School
Adopt A Classroom - Lucy Sanchez - Lucy S
To Subaru Santa Monica, Thank you so much for supporting my students by providing essential materials we need and did not have. We are so grateful and feel honored to be chosen. We can not thank you enough! We are going to learn and build community with your donations. Thank you. Thanks again, Lucy Sanchez Stoner Avenue Elementary School
Adopt A Classroom - Laura Gomez - Laura G
To Subaru Santa Monica, Thank you Santa Monica Subaru for your generous donation! The donation will be used towards flexible seating and other accommodations to create an affirming and supporting environment for my students at Stoner Avenue Elementary! Thanks again, Laura Gomez Stoner Avenue Elementary School
AdoptAClassroom.org - Hugo Perez - Hugo P
To Subaru Santa Monica, This means so much to me as a new teacher beginning my career! It's been a long journey to now finally reach my dream, and this donation is going to do wonders for my students! Most of our students live in the projects, so many of them don't have the certain supplies that others may. With the donation I have been blessed with, I plan on getting the essentials needed to make them happy and feel as prepared as possible to learn! I want them to know that we care for them and are here to provide them all the support we possibly can. I sincerely appreciate your consideration and donation for our wonderful students, our future! Thanks again, Hugo Perez Stoner Avenue Elementary School
Come rain or shine - Annie W
Our pets are with us through thick and thin, providing us with emotional support and unconditional love. They deserve so much more than a life in the shelter, or even worse a life cut short. Luckily, there are those working to help pets in need and on October 15th they showed up in the rain to make a difference, just like our pets show up for us every day come rain or shine. Subaru Santa Monica kindly hosted Karma Rescue’s spay/neuter clinic with Amazing Small Animal Practice. This was followed by an adoption event with Karma Rescue’s adoption partners: Beach City Kitties, Ozzie and Friends Rescue, Earth Angels Rescue, Los Angeles Rabbit Foundation and Above and Beyond Guinea Rescue and their grand total of 45 animals! It was a busy day with all hands on deck from Karma volunteers, Joey and his gracious Subaru staff and Amazing Small Animal Practice’s vet team. Despite the rainy start, it was a huge success. 28 pets were fixed, 16 pets vaccinated, 20 pets microchipped, and our vet partner even found time to squeeze in two dental cleanings and a hernia repair! To end the day, 6 pets found their loving forever homes. Subaru Santa Monica gave Karma Rescue the opportunity to tackle shelter overcrowding and to help pets live healthier lives with their families. Bringing groups together tackles the issue from all angles and ensures pets have brighter, sunnier futures they deserve.
Did Subaru Santa Monica go above and beyond, provide exceptional service, or support causes that are important to you? We'd love to hear about it.
