Doggie Donation - Olivia W
Last year we partnered with Rainbow Senior Center at Kronkosky Place for Meals on Wheels. Supporting the seniors with Meals on Wheels has always been something dear to the hearts of our staff here at Subaru Dominion. Being able to provide meals to the senior's door step and hearing the stories has truly been humbling to our staff. A lot of these seniors do not have transportation or enough means to provide for their very loved pets. Occasionally we were told that the seniors cut their meal in half to share with their pet. That touched our team and customers so much that we decided this year to donate animal food and supplies. We would like to give a huge thank you to our Subaru customers that have donated these supplies, and we hope to continue being able to support these seniors and their pets. If you would like to donate animal items, we have a donation drop box on our showroom floor! #subarulovespets
Bark in The Park - Olivia W
Once again, we were able to support our San Antonio Missions this summer for their "Bark in The Park". We have fun Subaru doggie swag to give away at these events and dog pools for our furry friends to cool off! Come join our next Bark in the Park July 11th, at 6pm!
Serving More than a Meal in a Pandemic - Forrest M
During a food delivery this summer, a client named Jim shared that MOW volunteers and staff were the only people he would see during the lockdown. Jim asked his family to stop visiting him “for the time being.” Because he’s in his 90s, he knows he is at higher risk. Amanda, a member of the Meals on Wheels San Antonio staff, reflected on his comment by saying, “we cannot assume that the seniors we serve are getting help from their children, friends, or relatives. They are counting on Meals on Wheels now more than ever.” The COVID-19 Pandemic created unique challenges for businesses, nonprofits, and individuals across the globe. Through these challenges, the Subaru vehicle donated to Meals on Wheels San Antonio (MOWSA) continues to provide critical support for seniors in the community. MOWSA has expanded services throughout the pandemic to meet the growing need in San Antonio. Since March, the agency has welcomed 1,722 new clients into the meal delivery program while also increasing the amount of meals in each delivery from five meals per week to seven. To better serve this growing client base while protecting the health of seniors and volunteers, MOWSA successfully consolidated delivery routes and moved to a central distribution point for delivery drivers. The Subaru vehicle was critical during this consolidation in Q4 of this grant cycle. With many volunteers staying home, the branded Subaru transitioned from event appearances to directly supporting daily meal delivery. Utilizing the Subaru to deliver meals allows the vehicle to travel different areas of the city every day with longer delivery routes due to the consolidation efforts. This allows for maximum visibility in the community. The importance of community visibility and word of mouth recommendations are more important than ever. In spite of the growth in 2020, MOWSA has seen doctor and caregiver referrals decrease dramatically during the pandemic. With restrictions in place, many homebound seniors are not receiving regular medical care or visits from social services. These partners are critical for identifying individuals who need the services of Meals on Wheels. Thanks to the co-branded Subaru, MOWSA has a consistent, tangible presence in neighborhoods throughout the service area which has increased the number of community referrals from the friends, neighbors, and family members of potential clients.

Fairways for Warriors - Olivia W
This year we have partnered with Fairways for Warriors, a Veterans charity organization. North Park Subaru Dominion was a hole sponsor on the golf course for this year’s Texas 7th Annual Golf Tournament. It was truly a pleasure meeting all of the Veterans that have served our country and the stories they told were incredible. We look forward to supporting this great cause with Fairways for Warriors in the near feature! Go support our Veterans!
Share the Love: Meals on Wheels - Olivia W
This year we partnered with Meals on Wheels of San Antonio and Rainbow Senior Center at Kronkosky Place for the Holiday season. We delivered Meals to the seniors throughout Kendall county and met the most wonderful individuals. Because of the "Share the Love Event" the funds that were given will go a long way to help provide meals for the home bound members through the Kendall County Meals on Wheels program. A big thanks to all of our North Park Subaru customers for your support and thank you for the "Share the Love Event". Warm Wishes. Letter from Rainbow Senior Center at Kronkosky: "Dear North Park Subaru Dominion, thank you for supporting our Meals on Wheels Kendall County Program and sharing the love! We are so grateful and humbled to be one of your hometown charities. You truly make the difference - together we serve more than just a meal. Rainbow Senior Center at Kronkosky"

2019 Leukemia & Lymphoma Society - Olivia W
Since 2015, we’ve partnered with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) to donate blanks, arts & crafts kits, and messages of hope to patients at cancer treatment centers. This year will be our second year teaming up with Texas Oncology to give our support. Every June our team here at North Park Subaru Dominion deliver the blanks and arts & crafts kits to the patients and it is truly a blessing to hear all of the stories from the patients. LLS is at the forefront of the fight to cure cancer. Compared to other blood cancer nonprofits, LLS is the largest funder of cutting-edge research to advance cures. They have invested nearly $1.3 billion in research. We love this opportunity to get involved; spreading hope, love, and warmth to those fighting cancer.
Gardening Day at North Park Subaru Dominion - Olivia W
This past Saturday we had the opportunity to invite Open T.R.A.I.L. Ranch and their students to help plant flowers for our new flower bed dedicated to Open T.R.A.I.L. Ranch. Everyone had a blast and being able to get involved with their students was a blessing!
