Meals on Wheels America

“For the past ten years, Subaru of America has partnered alongside the Meals on Wheels network to deliver nutrition, companionship and comfort to our nation’s most vulnerable seniors,” said Ellie Hollander, President and CEO, Meals on Wheels America. “Since 2008, Subaru’s Share the Love Event has helped deliver more than 1.7 million meals to seniors served by Meals on Wheels. Funds raised through this year’s event will come at a critical time for the Meals on Wheels network, allowing our boots on the ground to deliver even more of these critically needed services.” Between November 16 and January 2, Subaru of America, Inc. will donate $250 to local senior nutrition programs like ours for every new vehicle sold or leased when the customer chooses Meals on Wheels as their charity of choice.
