THANK YOU FROM LLS, VALENTI SUBARU! - Tasha M
For the past 10 years, Subaru of America and its retailers have partnered with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) through the Subaru Loves to Care initiative. The partnership has involved delivering blankets and messages of hope to cancer patients across the country. On June 17th, Valenti Subaru personally delivered these items to patients. These blankets and messages of hope provide warmth and comfort to patients in treatment. The love and support shared through this cherished partnership means a lot to everyone involved! This year, Valenti Subaru also opted to support the LLS Urgent Need Program, which will provide blood cancer patients financial relief to help offset non-medical costs associated with treatment, such as transportation, food, housing, utilities, etc. Thank you for your commitment to supporting your community as well as the LLS mission to create a world without blood cancer and improve the quality of life for patients and their families.

Valenti Subaru Teams Up to Support Local Community - Nate R
Imagine going without a coat, shoes, or even socks. For millions of children and adults experiencing homelessness and other urgent need situations across the country, even here in Westerly, this is a harsh reality. Helping others strengthens communities, which is why Valenti Subaru is partnering with Operation Warm®, a national nonprofit focused on connecting children with the resources they need to thrive. Through this partnership and other Subaru Loves to Help® efforts, Subaru and retailers like Valenti Subaru have helped nearly 900,000 children and adults in urgent need. On 02/05/2025, Valenti Subaru donated 120 shoes/socks to Tri-County Community Action Agency, Westerly. These essential items not only help keep children protected, warm, and dry, it can have a significant impact on a child's mental and emotional well-being.
Humanitarian Service - David R
We provide a variety of services to children and adults with developmental disabilities throughout the State of RI. One of the local Westerly families was having difficulties maintaining their vehicle, a necessary part of their daily job responsibilities. Bruce and Phyllis became aware of this and promptly made arrangements to have this vehicle repaired with new parts and service with no cost to the family. Our sincerest thanks to Bruce, Phyllis, and the entire Valenti Subaru service/parts department for their generosity and willingness to go above and beyond to assist a local family in need. Valenti Subaru of Westerly has proven themselves to be a worthy community partner!
Bruce and Valenti Support Schools - Janelle M
A heartfelt thank you to Bruce Morrow and Valenti Subaru for your generous donation to our annual Dunn’s Corner School Pasta Supper and Basket Raffle. This annual event hosted by Dunn’s Corner School PTO is our biggest and most exciting event of the year. We invite DCS families to join us for dinner with musical entertainment provided by our own musical teacher and over 60 basket raffle items to win! This event is only successful thanks to donors like Valenti Subaru. This is their second year donating and it has made such an impact on our fundraiser. When I first approached Bruce in 2024 he was excited and beyond willing to help out our small local elementary school just a few miles from his dealership. To Bruce and all of Valenti Subaru, thank you for caring for our students, teachers, parents and schools in our community!

Valenti Subaru Loves to Stand Up For Animals - Caryn M
In December of 2023, Stand Up For Animals launched a full-time affordable animal wellness clinic that is housed in the Westerly Animal Shelter in Westerly, RI. This Clinic dedicates every Friday to the care of shelter animals and ensures that all cats and dogs adopted from the Shelter are neutered/spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. In addition, the Clinic is open to the public 4 days per week offering low-cost wellness exams and subsidized neuter/spay surgeries. In an era where the average cost to spay a female dog is $800, we are able to subsidize the cost and charge $350 for the same surgery due to the support of Subaru. We also care for community feral cats and after they've been trapped by volunteers they are then neutered/spayed and vaccinated in our clinic before being returned to the colony. This is a huge benefit to our community and surrounding communities in addition to delivering the care needed for companion animals. This was made possibly by the support of Subaru and especially the team at Valenti Subaru. Their ongoing support through Subaru Loves Pets and the Subaru Loves programs has made this endeavor successful. Thank you Subaru and special thanks to the team at Valenti Subaru for their ongoing support.
$1.5M raised for Make-A-Wish Massachusetts and Rhode Island - Peg W
Over the past 13 years, Make-A-Wish has been both honored and grateful to partner with our Subaru of New England Retailers as one of the four national charity partners of the Share the Love campaign. We are thrilled to share that following this year’s results, the combined support of our local Massachusetts and Rhode Island retailers has just surpassed $1.5 Million for Make-A-Wish Massachusetts and Rhode Island! It is proven that wishes can have a positive impact on the medical outcomes of children facing critical illnesses. A wish experience can improve a child’s quality of life and emotional well-being, while also strengthening families. A wish enables a child to imagine a future that is bright and provides motivation and hope when they need it most. The transformative impact of a wish cannot be overstated, and we depend on the generosity of partners like you to move closer to our vision of granting the wish of every eligible child in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Your support benefits not only a local child and family, but their community as well, reminding every one of us that we are capable of uplifting one another. Thank you, Valenti Subaru, for your compassionate partnership in bringing hope and joy to local kids with critical illnesses.
