Subaru Loves Learning: Competition Subaru’s Impact

At Competition Subaru, we believe in more than just selling cars—we believe in making a meaningful impact in our community. That’s why we’re thrilled to share the incredible difference we’ve made together through the Subaru Loves Learning program.

During the 2024/2025 school year, your support helped us touch lives at Anthony Alfano Elementary School and beyond. With $9,300 donated, we were able to support 465 students and provide essential resources to 15 classrooms. These contributions don’t just stop at school supplies; they bring encouragement, opportunity, and hope for a brighter future to learners right here in our community and across Subaru dealerships nationwide.

In fact, through Subaru Loves Learning, more than 750,000 students across the country benefited from these efforts. The generosity and commitment from customers like you help drive equity in education, ensuring every child has the tools they need to succeed.


We are incredibly grateful to stand with you in this mission, and we look forward to continuing this important work in 2025. Thank you for being part of the Competition Subaru family and for helping us create real change in the lives of teachers, students, and schools. Together, we’re driving toward a better future for all.

Providing Warmth That Goes Beyond Winter For many families, access to necessities like winter clothing can determine whether a child feels comfortable attending school or participating in everyday activities. These items don’t just offer protection from the cold - they provide dignity, reassurance, and the confidence every child deserves. Through Subaru Loves to Help®, tens of thousands of children across the country are being supported this season, with over 140,000 kids receiving new coats, shoes, and socks. Over the past three years, Subaru’s partnership with Operation Warm has helped more than 430,000 children, and historical Subaru Loves to Help efforts have reached over one million people nationwide. Subaru is proud to be the largest automotive supporter of Operation Warm, and Competition Subaru is grateful to play a role in this meaningful mission. About Operation Warm® Operation Warm is a national nonprofit organization that manufactures high-quality winter coats, shoes, and socks for children in need.
