DESCRIPTION:

CAMDEN, N.J., November 18, 2021 /3BL Media/ – Subaru of America, Inc. today announced that to celebrate the launch of the 2021 Subaru Share the Love® Event, the automaker will debut a series of national advertising spots featuring the people, places and pets impacted by the philanthropy event over its 14-year-long run.

Highlighting the strength of the causes Subaru and Subaru owners love and support, the new series of ads spotlight each of the national charities which benefit from the Subaru Share the Love Event: The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals® (ASPCA®), Make-A-Wish ®, Meals on Wheels America and the National Park Foundation. The advertising also showcases the hometown charities – selected by Subaru retailers – which benefit from the Subaru Share the Love Event, as well as the impact of the automaker’s work with Feeding America to help address food insecurity.

“Being more than a car company means stepping up for our communities, and the Subaru Share the Love Event is the culmination of a year spent striving to be a source of help, comfort and love for all those who interact with Subaru,” said Alan Bethke, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Subaru of America, Inc. “Together with our retailer partners and valued Subaru community, we proudly kick off this 14th annual Subaru Share the Love Event. By the end of the campaign, we are hoping to have donated a cumulative $225 million to charities who touch the hearts of the Subaru community nationwide.”

Representing the impact Subaru has helped to make on causes that matter most to its customers, the spots, created by Subaru of America with agency partner Carmichael Lynch, will run in :30 and :15 second formats on national television, as well as digital video platforms including Discovery+, Hulu and Peacock.

The creative features non-profit volunteers including retailers who help give back in their local communities, family members and those who have been positively impacted by the various organizations. Vignettes include:

Giving Back Anthem – During the pandemic, we at Subaru have provided more than 150 million meals to Feeding America, to ensure no one goes hungry. Our strong belief in giving back is why we created the Subaru Share the Love Event, and it’s part of why we are More Than a Car Company ®.

The Largest Impact – The Subaru Share the Love Event is now in its 14th year, and we are the largest automotive donor to Make-A-Wish and Meals on Wheels, and the largest corporate donor to the ASPCA and the National Park Foundation. By the end of this year, we’ll have donated more than $225 million to charity. During the Subaru Share the Love Event, Subaru will donate $250 to the charity of your choice when you purchase a new Subaru.
