Subaru of America, Inc. (“SOA”) and Subaru Superstore of Chandler presented two checks Tuesday for $36,000 & $48,000 to Chandler Education Foundation and Arizona Friends of Foster Children Foundation.
Chandler Education Foundation and Arizona Friends of Foster Children Foundation were both beneficiaries in the 2015 Subaru Share the Love event.
From November 19, 2015 to January 2, 2016, customers who purchased or leased a new Subaru vehicle could select from a list of charities to receive a donation of $250 from SOA, which was matched by Subaru Superstore of Chandler up to $5,000 for each local charity.
This year, Subaru of America will donate up to $15 million to participating charities. Over the last seven years, SOA has donated $50 million to a number of worthy causes through the Share the Love event.
SOA selected the four national charities: ASPCA, Make-A-Wish, Meals On Wheels America and National Park Foundation. Subaru Superstore of Chandler selected Chandler Education Foundation and Arizona Friends of Foster Children Foundation as its two “hometown charities.”
The checks for $36,000 and $48,000 were presented to Chandler Education Foundation and Arizona Friends of Foster Children Foundation by Richard Cvijanovich, dealer principal, Subaru Superstore of Chandler.
