When mentors are needed, Subaru is there! - Letitia H.
The LIME Foundation is a nonprofit dedicated to educating, mentoring, and training at-risk youth and young adults for careers in the construction trades. Recently, we expanded that mission by launching a pilot program called High Road Transportation Career Pathways, an automotive career academy designed for at-risk youth and adults who are exploring opportunities in the automotive industry. As with any new program, building community support took time. It took nearly a year to get automotive businesses to say yes to mentoring, speaking, and opening doors for our students. But when we reached out to Shawn Bachelder, General Sales Manager at Subaru Marin, he did not hesitate. Shawn came and spoke with our students about his own journey into auto sales, what the automotive industry is really like, and the opportunities available to those willing to work hard and stay committed. He offered honest, real-life advice and helped our students see that the automotive field can be more than just a job. It can be a meaningful and rewarding career. His message was inspiring, relatable, and deeply appreciated. Our students loved hearing from him, and many walked away with a better understanding of what is possible for their futures. We are incredibly grateful to Shawn Bachelder and Subaru Marin for showing up for our students and supporting the next generation of automotive professionals.

Subaru Loves to Care initiative - Kofo M.
For the past several years, Marin Subaru has partnered with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and Marin General - Integrative Wellness Center through the Subaru Loves to Care initiative. The partnership has involved delivering 80 comfy blankets, patient care kits, and messages of hope to cancer patients. This initiative has spread so much hope, love, and warmth to cancer patients in this local community! On June 6th, Olivia Garcia and Alexis Taylor of Subaru personally delivered these items for staff to hand out to patients in treatment. The hospital staff were incredibly grateful for the gracious donation. Alison Garret, Manager, Integrative Wellness Center at Marin Health was very appreciative of the blanket drop and the ongoing partnership with LLS and Subaru. Blankets will be delivered throughout their cancer services in infusion, radiology, resource/support center and upcoming survivorship education series. It was such a heartwarming experience for everyone who attended the blanket drop off! Thank you Subaru! :)
