Subaru Retailers Team Up to Support Hurricane Relief Efforts - Jess M
At Budd Baer Subaru, we’re always ready to step up and support our communities, especially in times of crisis. This commitment is at the heart of the Subaru Love Promise®. When Hurricanes Helene and Milton devastated the Eastern region, Subaru retailers like us immediately sprang into action. Alongside other Subaru retailers, Subaru of America, and local organizations, we assessed the most urgent needs in the affected areas. It quickly became clear that local food banks were struggling to keep up with the surge in demand as they worked to support people hit hardest by the storms. In response, we teamed up with 67 Subaru retailers across the region to launch a $400,000 match campaign to aid the hurricane relief efforts of Feeding America®. Budd Baer Subaru proudly contributed $2000 to this initiative. While the immediate impact of the storms fades from the headlines, many of our neighbors continue to face long-term challenges like food insecurity, water shortages, power outages, and limited access to essential services. Thanks to the collective generosity of Subaru retailers and the communities we serve, an additional $18,427 was raised. This brings the total impact to $418,427, or over 4,100,000 meals for those in need. "As one of the nation's largest disaster relief organizations, the Feeding America network of food banks and partner agencies is deeply rooted in communities across the country. Together, our partnership with trusted Subaru dealers has helped expedite emergency food assistance and supplies to people who need it most. We are immensely grateful," said Feeding America Chief Development Officer Casey Marsh.

Always B Smiling Miles For Smiles 5K Walk/Run & FUN! - Jenna B
The Budd Baer Brigade was 22 participants strong in last Sunday’s Miles For Smiles 5K Walk. Always B Smiling is a nonprofit organization based in McMurray, PA right on the Montour Trail. ABS offers adaptive bike rides for kids and young adults with special needs. They have expanded their mission to offer arts and crafts, dog biscuit making, yoga, a lively drum circle all for individuals with special needs and even including their siblings! Budd Baer Subaru was proud to put forth a team as well as be sponsor for the event which also served as an unofficial soft opening for their brand new Activity and Learning Center. The main goal of the center is to provide a fully accessible space where kids and their caretakers can feel supported and welcomed on the trail. The center will include a therapy room, a large activity room and bathrooms with an accessible shower, changing table and sink with adjustable height. The center will give kids the opportunity to learn vocational skills. And its entrance will feature a “merchandise room” where kids can make and sell their crafts. In the kitchen, they hope to start a small cafe with a walk-up window where kids will learn how to make and serve drinks to trail users.
