Since 2018, as part of the Subaru Loves the Earth initiative, Subaru and retailers across the country have partnered with TerraCycle® and have collected over 7 million pieces of hard-to-recycle trash from their communities. Items such as snack bag wrappers, coffee cups, or used cabin air filters from service areas have been diverted from landfills and given a second life by TerraCycle when it is converted into durable furniture and other usable items.
It's our goal to make the pursuit of knowledge available to as many minds as possible.
Since 2015 Subaru, in partnership with the American Association for the Advancement Science, donated over 369,000 award-winning science books. In addition, through our partnerships with Staples and Adoptaclassroom.org we supported teachers and students with donations of $400,000 in gift cards and school supplies.
In a perfect world, hunger would be history and hope would be commonplace. We believe a perfect world is possible.
In 2020, Subaru and its retailers made a donation to Feeding America to provide 50 million meals to help feed people in need during the COVID-19 crisis,* making meals available at 199 local food banks across the country.

We should all have a chance to lead a healthy life. We’re aiming to give as many people that chance as we can.

Subaru and Nelson Subaru believe in making a positive impact on the communities in which we live and work. We uphold that belief through our Love Promise Community Commitment. Every month, we select inspiring stories from customers and partners from around our area who strive to support our collective commitment and feature them here.
The last few years have been challenging for everyone. Harmony Hall relies on the support of our community and Nelson Subaru has helped us out during these difficult times. They delivered a shipment of blankets to help keep our residents warm and comfortable during the colder winter months. We appreciate the support that Nelson Subaru provides.
The Ravenel Cancer Center treats all types of cancer. The stress that comes with cancer has been heightened during the difficult times that we have recently faced. Often, the patients who come in for treatment are anxious and nervous. Nelson Subaru has provided The Ravenel Cancer Center with a supply of nice blankets to keep our patients comfortable while receiving treatments. This kind gesture not only helps keep them warm, but also helps ease the tension that they encounter. Thanks to the team at Nelson Subaru for helping keep our patients comfortable while receiving care.
Through our partnership with Nelson Subaru, we hosted a month-long reduced adoption fee special during October. This event helped find 90 pets their perfect, loving home! During one of our off-site events, we brought a young dog who'd been found by Animal Control. When first picked up, Aurora had lost almost half of her hair due to fleas and it took weeks of care to help her hair regrow. At this event, Aurora found her perfect fit. The family has updated us that she learned her electric fence immediately and meshed with their family immediately!
Our local Subaru is a huge supporter for the homeless animals of Martinsville and Henry County. They donated over 100 toys to our shelter. We handed out some of the toys to families as they adopted their new friends so the dogs would have a brand new toy to help welcome them into their new homes! The rest of the toys went to the dogs still in the shelter to help them occupy their time and have something to play with while they waited for forever homes.
The faculty, staff and students at Campbell Court Elementary School would like to express our gratitude to Nelson Subaru for the donation of over 100 books to our 4th and 5th grade classes. Here at Campbell Court, our goal is to instill a love of learning in each child and engage them in meaningful instruction. With the aid of these books, our teachers are able to provide lessons that increase students’ interests and promote student learning. Again, thank you Nelson Subaru, for helping make a difference in the lives of our children.
There’s something to be said about southern, small-town hospitality. The team at Nelson Subaru partnered with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) for the first time this year in the Subaru Loves To Care program. On July 19, 2019, the two organizations came together to deliver 80 blankets to cancer patients at Ravenel Oncology Center of Sovah Health – Martinsville. An additional part of the initiative were the Messages of Hope, well-wishing sentiments that Subaru encouraged their customers to compose during service and sales visits. Nelson Subaru staff knew how inspiring these cards could be – a token of a stranger’s love imparted onto a deserving recipient. When LLS arrived in the showroom, they were humbly surprised to find out that the smaller retailer team had made an incredible effort to collect well over 80 messages (a benchmark not often set by counterparts in more urban markets). This allowed at least one card to be delivered with every single blanket. One gracious recipient was Michelle Hall. Michelle was in for chemotherapy treatment that morning. She arrived to the center well before the sun came up. When the nursing staff invited her to commemorate the delivery with a photo, she quietly and gently walked over. With the fluids still flowing into her port in the upper corner of her chest, the LLS team offered to unfurl one of the wrapped blankets to keep her comfortable. After the occasion was over, Michelle made her way back to the other side of the dimly-lit room, to nap and continue her treatment. All it takes is a simple gesture, especially in a small, close-knit community. Reece Roberts, Sales Manager, and Judy Hardy, Sales Consultant of Nelson Subaru, know that all too well. Not only did Judy recognize the Onocology Director there at Sovah Health, Michael Compton, as a past part-time Subaru employee, but one of the Messages of Hope that she handed out was actually written by a family friend of the receiving patient.
We would like to thank our customers for participating in our E Waste Recycling event during the month of April.
