Subaru Loves Pets $4,000 Grant Helps Homeless Pets at the Erie Humane Society - Emily M
We are so grateful to New Motors Subaru and the Subaru Loves Pets program for their incredible support of the Erie Humane Society! Their generous grant helps provide essential care for our shelter pets—including spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations, nutritious food, safe shelter, and microchips—ensuring every animal has the best possible start to their new life. Thanks to their kindness, adopters also enjoyed sponsored or reduced adoption fees during our October adoption promotion, making it easier than ever to welcome a new pet home. And to top it off, every adopted pet left with a Subaru Loves Pets swag bag filled with toys and goodies, courtesy of New Motors Subaru! “The support we receive from New Motors Subaru and initiatives like Subaru Loves Pets is truly invaluable to our mission,” said Joe Lang, Executive Director of the Erie Humane Society. “Their generosity directly impacts the lives of the pets in our care, allowing us to provide essential medical services, safe shelter, and the second chances every animal deserves. We’re deeply grateful for partners who share our commitment to helping pets in need and strengthening our community.” 65 shelter pets embarked on the next phase of their journey with their forever families. For pets like 12-year-old cat, Blue, who found herself in our shelter after her owner entered long-term care, Dopey, a 1-year-old dog who suffered serious injury being locked in a cage with another dog and attacked repeatedly, and 3-month-old kitten, Sammie, who not only was surrendered with botfly larva under her skin, but also suffered a broken leg, programs like Subaru Loves Pets and the support of New Motors Subaru serves as a lifeline for many underdogs and homeless pets seeking love and a family. The support and generosity of New Motors Subaru and Subaru Loves Pets means the world to our staff, our supporters, and—most importantly—our animals. Thank you for helping us change lives, one adoption at a time.

New Motors Honors Earth Day 2025 with 100 Trees for a Greener Future - Beth M
In celebration of Earth Day 2025, New Motors has donated 100 trees to our local community to support reforestation and promote a greener, more sustainable future. Trees are essential to a healthy planet and vibrant communities. They clean the air we breathe, absorb carbon to fight climate change, and provide cooling shade that helps reduce energy use. Tree roots protect soil and water, while branches offer shelter to countless wildlife species. Beyond the environment, trees lift our spirits, make neighborhoods more beautiful, and even increase property values. Every tree planted is an investment in a greener, healthier future for all. At New Motors, we believe every action counts toward a cleaner, more sustainable future. Together, small steps can make a big difference for our planet’s future. This Earth Day, we’re proud to be doing our part to plant trees and help the earth thrive. #EarthDay2025 #GreenerTomorrow #TogetherForThePlanet

New Motors Subaru brings hope and joy to wish kids through Share the Love again this year! - Courtney N
For the past four years, New Motors Subaru has been a driving force in bringing hope and joy to local children with critical illnesses. As a Hometown Charity for the Share the Love campaign since 2020, the partnership has brought in over $75,000 for children in the Erie Region through Make-A-Wish Greater Pennsylvania and West Virginia. These funds have played a vital role in granting wishes that provide life-changing experiences for children facing the unimaginable. The Erie Regional Office serves a seven-county region, including Clarion, Crawford, Erie, Forest, Mercer, Warren and Venango. Each year, this office helps make dreams come true for about 40 local children, with the average wish costing $5,000. Thanks to the generosity of campaigns like Share the Love, more wishes can become a reality. The impact this year is no exception. Just ask Ella. Eighteen-year-old Ella has been through a long medical journey, including a kidney transplant, and her wish brought her immense happiness this winter. As an avid baker, book lover and gamer, she wished for a shopping spree to indulge in her favorite passions. She picked out a top-of-the-line gaming computer, a KitchenAid stand mixer to start making her own bread and went on a major book-buying spree, adding countless titles to her ever-growing "To Be Read" list. The experience gave her a sense of joy and normalcy after years of medical challenges. Because of New Motors Subaru's generosity, wishes like Ella's continue to bring hope and excitement to children when they need it most. Thank you, New Motors Subaru, for being a part of these life-changing moments!
