Subaru recently announced that because of the 2016 Share the Love event, they were able to donate $23.4 million to national and local charities, bringing the grand total of money raised over the lifespan of the program to over $94 million donated. The Share the Love event is held at the end of every year for the past nine years now, and with every new Subaru model sold or leased, Subaru donates $250 to a number of charitable organizations at the choice of the customer buying or leasing the vehicle.
This year, the four main charities were the ASPCA, Make-A-Wish, Meals on Wheels America and National Park Foundation, as well as many different local charities from the communities where the Subaru dealerships were located, generating 1.3 million dollars for local charities across the nation, bringing the total amount of money raised during the event up to a grand total of $24.8 million to both national and local charities.
Here at Riley Subaru, we proudly support the Share the Love event and couldn't be happier to hear how successful it was to helping important charity organizations both nationally and locally. We care immensely about our community here in the greater Dubuque area, as well as the entire state of Iowa, and the country as a whole, and we feel privileged to be able to contribute to something as important as this!
