Subaru of America has chosen Tabitha Meals on Wheels as a “Hometown Charity”—a recipient of generous gifts—during The 2024 Subaru Share the Love® Event.
From Nov. 21, 2024 through Jan. 2, 2025, for every Subaru purchased or leased at local dealership DuTeau Subaru, customers can choose from four nonprofits to receive a $300 donation.
By choosing Meals on Wheels America as your charity of choice, senior recipients of Tabitha Meals on Wheels will benefit.
Tabitha Meals on Wheels—Lincoln’s first meal delivery service of its kind, combatting food insecurity for seniors in the capital city since 1967—delivers nutritious meals, safety check-ins and friendly volunteer interactions.
This lifeline community resource also provides security and peace of mind to seniors and their families: 81% of program recipients cannot afford the price of their weekday lunches, yet 90% of recipients state the lifeline program allows them to remain independent at home.
“Tabitha Meals on Wheels delivers so much more than a meal,” said Jeff McGinn, Vice President, Tabitha Foundation. “Hundreds of Seniors are relying on Tabitha to age in place in the comfort and safety of their homes. But with food and labor costs on the rise, we can’t continue without the valuable support of local advocates and community contributions. Tabitha is deeply grateful to Subaru for their Commitment to older neighbors—both in the heartland and throughout the nation.”
For 17 years, Subaru has committed to numerous causes through the Share the Love Event. Their awareness and contributions have covered more than 4.6 million meals for older adults throughout the United States.
“Supporting the causes closest to our hearts is top of mind during this time of year,” shared Jeff Walters, Subaru of America President and Chief Operating Officer. “Subaru and our retailers celebrate the holiday season by showing what makes the Subaru community so considerate, both nationally and in the communities we call home. Our retailers and customers are at the heart of what we do and why we strive to be a force for good, helping to create positive change with our partners and truly showing what makes Subaru ‘more than a car company.’”
