WCCOA Partners with LaRiche Subaru to "Share the Love"


Wood County Committee on Aging, Inc. Partners with LaRiche Subaru of Findlay to “Share the Love” this Holiday Season

 
Subaru’s “Share the Love” event helps deliver nutritious meals and compassion to Wood County’s seniors

 
Wood County Committee on Aging, Inc. (WCCOA) proudly partnered with LaRiche Subaru of Findlay this holiday season in an effort to help fight senior isolation and hunger.

 
LaRiche Subaru delivered meals to older adults in southern Wood County on Thursday, December 10 at the North Baltimore Area Senior Center.

 
The event was all part of an effort to raise community awareness and participation to support local seniors in need. This local effort is part of Meals On Wheels America’s participation in Subaru of America, Inc.’s national year-end “Share the Love” event, designed as a way for Subaru retailers to give back to their local communities.

 
“We are very pleased that Subaru and MOWA have joined forces again this holiday season to ensure that no senior goes hungry,” said Angie Bradford, Director of Food Service for WCCOA. 

 
As part of a national partnership with Meals on Wheels America, Subaru will donate $250 to the purchaser’s choice of participating charity – one of which is Meals on Wheels – for every new vehicle sold or leased from November 19, 2015, through January 2, 2016. Since the Share the Love Event began in 2008, Subaru and its participating retailers have donated more than 1.2 million meals, safety checks and friendly visits to seniors being served by local Meals on Wheels programs across the country.
