Subaru Share The Love Event 2017

Check Donation to Birthright Lake County

Ganley Subaru East was proud to partner with Subaru of America, Inc. as part of our 2017 Share The Love Event. From November 17th 2016 through January 3rd 2017, members of our community who purchased a new Subaru were able to direct a $250 donation from Subaru of America to the charity of their choice - ASPCA, Make-a-Wish, Meals on Wheels, The National Park Foundation, or our local charity - Birthright Lake County.
Birthright Lake County offers free, non-judgemental, confidential help and guidance to pregnant women and families who are struggling due to personal and/or financial difficulties. Birthright offers services such as counseling, pregnancy testing, maternity clothing, infant and toddler clothing, formula, diapers and baby food.
Learn more about the crucial services that Birthright offers to our community here: http://www.birthrightlake.org/
It was through the generosity of our customers and Subaru of America that we were able to donate a check for $56,100 to Birthright Lake County!! This provided much-needed funding for this organization - especially since they are in the middle of an unexpected relocation. This donation will help ensure a smooth transition and help Birthright continue to provide the excellent level of care and support to families who need it the most.

3rd Annual Pet Adoption Event with Lake Humane Society

Ganley Subaru East teamed up with the Lake Humane Society on October 8th, 2016 to sponsor a Pet Adoption Event in our showroom. This is the third year we have hosted an event and it keeps getting bigger and better. Our event featured several adoptable dogs and cats, as well as a "Stuff the Subaru" donation car that we filled with donations for the animals. According to Lake Humane Society, "Ganley Subaru Adoption Event Update: 27 pets (6 puppies, 5 adult dogs, 15 kittens, and 1 adult cat) found loving homes as a result of this 4 hour event yesterday. We are lucky to have that many pets adopted in an entire week, let alone in one day. We thank all of our adopters for coming out and giving a loving home to a pet in need. We'd also like to thank our wonderful friends at Ganley Subaru East for putting on this event for us. Their continued support means so much to us."

On behalf of the Lake Health/University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center, I would like to take a moment to thank you and Subaru of Wickliffe for the wonderful blankets your group donated in conjunction with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to the Center for our patients.

Since 1997, our state-of-the-art facility has brought the most advanced scientific knowledge about cancer diagnosis and treatment, together with quality and compassionate care of the highest order. Your support is of great encouragement as we continue to wage the fight against cancer, and we respectfully ask that you keep our Center in mind for any future donations. Please accept my personal thanks and gratitude for your meaningful gifts to our Center. Sincerely, Julie A. Moran, RN, BSN, MBA Executive Director
