R&G Subaru - A Great Community Partner to Cancer Patients - Brenda K
On June 10th, Drew Larson of R&G Subaru rolled up to Sanford Health Detroit Lakes Clinic in a car filled with love for the patients at the clinic. As a longtime partner to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), R&G Subaru has been blessing local patients with warm blankets and messages of hope through the Subaru Loves to Care Initiative. Subaru of America and its retailers are committed to providing warmth, love and support to those facing cancer and over the ten years of this partnership between LLS and Subaru retailers, over 350,000 patients have been supported across the nation. R&G Subaru donated 80 soft, warm blankets for the patients of the clinic knowing that the “chemo chills” are a side effect of the treatment for their cancer. These blankets and the messages of hope written by Subaru showroom guests let the patients know that their community is thinking of them. Brittany Cusey of Sanford Health Detroit Lakes Clinic expressed their gratitude for this partnership with R&G Subaru and LLS, stating that this “brings comfort and warmth to our patients when they need it most.”
R & G Subaru Teams Up to Support Local Community - Shellee B
Imagine going without a coat, shoes, or even socks. For millions of children and adults experiencing homelessness and other urgent need situations across the country, even here in Detroit Lakes, this is a harsh reality. Helping others strengthens communities, which is why R & G Subaru is partnering with Operation Warm®, a national nonprofit focused on connecting children with the resources they need to thrive. Through this partnership and other Subaru Loves to Help® efforts, Subaru and retailers like R & G Subaru have helped nearly 900,000 children and adults in urgent need. On 01/15/2025, R & G Subaru donated 120 coats to Lakes Crisis & Resource Center. These essential items not only help keep children protected, warm, and dry, it can have a significant impact on a child's mental and emotional well-being.
Coats for a Cause - Alyssa H
Multiple boxes of winter coats were brought to Boys & Girls Club of Detroit Lakes, MN as a donation from the local Subaru dealer. In just 2 weeks, almost ALL of the winter coats found homes in the hands of local youth. The kids were so excited to pick out their very own unique color as all the coats looked different. Parents and guardians were incredibly appreciative as they said "My child just outgrew their coat and we were trying to make the current one last through the rest of winter" - it was a relief to know that their child now has a perfectly fitting, warm coat to last them through the last few cold months of the season. Thank you for helping keep local youth warm and comfortable this winter!
Jacket Donation - Stevie G
"R&G Subaru, Thank you so much for the amazing donation of all the new jackets! Our members & their families have been so grateful, and the kids have had so much fun picking one out. You have blessed so many kids & families with this generous donation!" Thank you, The Boys & Girls Club Of DL Team
