Share the Love Program
The Salvation Army and Continental Subaru continue the ‘Share the Love’ program
The Salvation Army Alaska’s Serendipity Adult Day Services Program and Continental Subaru are continuing the “Share the Love” program.
“On behalf of our senior program participants, The Salvation Army Serendipity program thanks Subaru of America for their generosity," said Serendipity program director Cathy Brenner, “The funds will help us continue to serve adults with special needs and help them live with hope and success.”
The Salvation Army Serendipity Program has been operating since 1985 and works with an average of 30 special needs adults every day, providing services to some of Anchorage's most vulnerable adults.
“Many of our clients no longer have family able to care for them and are unable to help themselves. Their financial resources may have been exhausted,” said Brenner. "The services we provide are essential for them to receive both needed nutrition and companionship. The generosity of Continental Subaru and their customers will go a long way and we can’t thank them enough. ”
Serendipity is a home and community based program in that it serves those still living in the community. By providing socialization, physical and mental stimulation activities, nursing assessments and congregate meals, we hope to allow each participant to remain in the community and out of an institutional setting.
From November 17, 2017 to January 3, 2018, customers who purchase or lease a new Subaru vehicle can select from a list of charities to receive a donation of $250 from Subaru of America (SOA). Since the start of the “Share the Love” program in 2008, SOA has donated approximately $93 million to a number of worthy causes through the “Share the Love” event. Over the last nine years, the Subaru ‘Share the Love’ program has donated millions to charitable organizations across the country devoted to serving their community. The Salvation Army is grateful for the generous gift from Continental Subaru and greatly appreciates their continued support.
