    Giving Comfort and Warmth

    Imagine having to go without something as simple as a pair of socks, wondering how you'll keep your feet warm and dry as it gets colder outside.

    It's something many of us have never had to consider, but for millions of people experiencing homelessness each year, many of whom are children, this is often a reality they face. McLaughlin Subaru wants to help. During the month of February, McLaughlin Subaru and retailers across the country are helping to support those in need by providing one of the most requested items needed by those experiencing homelessness: socks.

    10 small item, most of us take for granted, can truly have an enormous impact by providing comfort and maintaining the health of those experiencing homelessness. Through the Subaru Loves to Help® initiative, Subaru and its retailers will have donated over 500,000 pairs of new socks, 50,000 of which are youth socks, along with 100,000 warm blankets for adults and children experiencing homelessness.

    McLaughlin Subaru is grateful to be able to help make this gesture of compassion for those who find themselves without a roof over their heads, to let them know that someone is thinking of them. This initiative is part of the Subaru Love Promise, our commitment to improving the lives in the communities where we live and work. And it's just one of the reasons why McLaughlin Subaru is More Than a Car Dealer®.

    Visit our page to learn more about #SubaruLovestoHelp and how you can support those experiencing homelessness in our community.

  • Subaru Loves to Help
    McLaughlin Subaru makes warm donation to help with upcoming cold weather

    Imagine worrying about staying warm as the nights grow colder. For more than 500,000 Americans experiencing homelessness, this is the reality they face every night. Through Subaru's Love Promise, which is a commitment to supporting our communities, Subaru and McLaughlin Motors are taking action by partnering with local homeless shelters to personally deliver water-resistant blankets and warm socks to help those in need.
    Last November, as part of Subaru Loves to Help, Subaru and McLaughlin Motors provided 50,000 warm blankets to homeless shelters across the country. This year, Subaru is doing it again to bring their total donation to 100,000 blankets to help those experiencing homelessness. In addition to more blankets, Subaru will also be donating 50,000 pairs of socks. Showing warmth and compassion for those who find themselves without a roof over their heads this season is just one of the ways we are doing even more to make a difference.
    On November 5, 2021, Subaru Express Advisor Logan Sharer and Subaru Sales Specialist Kim Hicks took our donation of blankets and socks to Humility Homes and Services, Inc. in Davenport.
    In addition to blankets and socks, shelters are often in need of other items such as sneakers, boots, pants, coats, hats, and gloves. Contact Humility Homes to find out what is needed in your community and how you can help.
