Ewing Subaru has helped support our teachers with funds and needed supplies for years now. It seems like each year they somehow find ways to do more for us. They surprised us this year by showing up with gift bags for all of our teachers during teacher appreciation week! Bags were filled with all kinds of gifts and supplies to benefit our teachers. There simply isn't enough that can be done to appreciate all the hard work our teachers do, but Ewing Subaru showed up to help us show our staff just how important they are.
DFW Rescue me would like to thank Ewing Subaru of Plano for being our Top Dog Sponsor for the 10th annual “Kibble and Cocktails” event where we successfully raised over $160,000 to support animals in need! Ten years ago, DFW Rescue ME rushed to the aid of a puppy who would come to be known as “Justice”. You can read Justice's complete story here: https://www.dfwrescueme.org/justices-story.html. Justice was a puppy who was doused with lighter fluid and set on fire by four men. DFW Rescue ME tried to save this puppy’s life, but despite all the efforts, he succumbed to his injuries. Justice was the first case of animal cruelty prosecuted in Dallas – he paved the way for law enforcement and the legal system to pursue and prosecute animal cruelty cases. While Justice suffered unspeakable acts of cruelty, DFW Rescue Me chose to focus on the impact his life had and created the Justice Fund in his honor. The Justice Fund continues today to provide dogs who are the victims of abuse, or neglect with necessary medical care and the opportunity to know kindness of the human hand. Something they all deserve. It’s estimated that six to eight million dogs and cats are euthanized in shelters each year and millions more are abandoned, only to suffer from illness or injury before dying. For us to achieve our mission and help as many animals as possible it requires a large amount of resources to find fosters, provide medical care for the animals we rescue, and transport them across the country to find them loving homes. Being a 100% volunteer based foster shelter DFW Rescue Me holds an annual event called “Kibble and Cocktails” at a local food / concert hall to fund the Justice Fund and secure enough resources to continue saving animals lives. During the event we show off several of our adoptable dogs throughout the venue all while people bid on items in a silent auction with live music playing in the background. Over 350 people attended the event and Ewing Subaru of Plano supplied them all with Subaru branded reusable grocery bags full of giveaways and swag. In addition, Ewing Subaru of Plano gained support from their local Subaru Zone Office, who presented a $5,000 check to DFW Rescue Me on stage that night! This was such a surprise to all the attendees that another donor decided to match the $5,000 Subaru donation! Without sponsors like Ewing Subaru of Plano none of what we do would be possible. We cannot thank them enough for their generosity! The truly live up to Subaru’s Love Promise and being More than a Car Dealer!

Because of Ewing Subaru's ongoing support of Genesis Women's Shelter & Support, we are able to provide safety, shelter and hope to more than 3700 women and children each year as they take their first steps away from domestic abuse. We know that 1 in 4 women will experience abuse in her lifetime. In Texas, this number is 1 in 3. Recently, Andrea* arrived to our emergency shelter with a broken leg, wearing nothing but the hospital gown from her recent emergency room visit. Upon her arrival, we were able to quickly provide her with new, comfortable clothing and shoes, full size personal and toiletry items, a clean comfortable bedroom and warm healthy meals. We were also able to provide Andrea with a wheelchair to easily move around our safe campus independently while her leg healed. We were also able to pair Andrea with a master's level therapist and advocate who work with her daily to navigate the post-traumatic stress symptoms and help her recover from the horrific abuse she has endured. Because of Subaru's support, we are able to help women like Andrea take their next steps toward healing - healing from the physical, verbal, emotional, financial and sexual abuse. When a survivor reaches out to Genesis for help, we like to learn what HER goals are for herself and for her children. We then provide the life-saving resources necessary to help her reach those goals. Subaru's ongoing support allows Genesis to provide a promise of hope for Genesis clients, including emergency shelter, transitional housing, onsite schooling for children, play therapy, occupational therapy, individual and group counseling, civial legal representation and more, all at no-cost, no strings attached! Thank you, Ewing Subaru of Plano, Texas! *Client's name changed for confidentiality.

Texas weather is NO JOKE! When it gets cold, it gets really cold!! We are so grateful for our friends at Subaru of Plano for donating hundreds of warm coats for children served through our programs. At Minnie's, we focus on low income families, providing them will free and healthy meals, educational resources and basic life necessities. Having access to warm clothing during the winter months is a basic need that every child deserves to have met. As a non-profit that interacts with the community on a daily basis, serving families both onsite and throughout the community through our On the Go distributions, we have seen countless children over the years without socks, jackets, and shoes. Thanks to our friends at Subaru Plano, who hand delivered these items to Minnie's, we have been able to keep kids healthy and warm, even when the temperatures drop to below freezing wind-chills!
Ewing Subaru of Plano hosted Abandoned Pet Project for an adoption event on 10/21/23 and it brought so much joy to the customers, staff, volunteers, and especially the animals! They were greeted by so many smiling faces, pets, play, and cuddles! The pups all got toys and such to take home and were each able to have a private photoshoot in the amazing dog park at Subaru! The customers and staff were generous in donations, we were able to spread awareness about our animals and mission, had people signing up to volunteer and foster, even having one employee sign up to foster. Devin fell for a sweet but shy puppy, Greta, we had there with one of her siblings and decided he wanted to bring her home and help her learn how to dog and come out of her shell. Well, after a few weeks Devin and family decided they just couldn't part with Greta and she is in the process of becoming a permanent member of the family! We're so happy for everyone involved and congrats to Greta on finding her FURever at Subaru!

Subaru is well known for their community activism and support of local causes. We here in North Texas are especially fortunate to have Ewing Subaru in our corner. Several times a year, Kathy Gaden, who is a professional pet photographer and wife of Subaru manager, Jeff Gaden, hosts a photo event at the retailer. Pet owners are invited to come and have professional portraits taken of their pets at no cost. They are encouraged to make a donation to the animal welfare organization that Kathy selects. We at Going Home, A Rescue Transport, have been the beneficiary of this event several times. In addition to the money donated by the pet-parents, Ewing Subaru makes a very sizable donation to us. This event is great fun and our volunteers are always eager to participate. Tamala and all the staff at Ewing Subaru go out of their way to make us feel welcome, including feeding us lunch! Everyone is a good sport with cats, dogs and even guinea pigs all around the retailer floor. With her professional backdrops and props, Kathy produces some amazing photographs. She takes all the time she needs with each pet to get the perfect shot. Because of their generosity, we are able to continue our mission to transport street and shelter animals out of harm's way and give them a second chance of a happy life. Ewing Subaru of Plano truly "walks the walk" when it comes to spreading love in our community.
Our Students For Life Group outreached to Subaru and met with Bruce Morrow. We were met with genuine kindness and ultimately gifted with so much support. Bruce's generosity helped reach our goal of donating over $1,000 to the Mother of Life Center. In addition to financial support, we got to meet Bruce's puppies and felt the contagious happiness all around the room. We truly appreciate Bruce's time and effort and I will continue to recommend Subaru because it is full of charismatic workers. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts!!
In February, we were once again invited to participate in a fundraising event that is sponsored several times a year by Ewing Subaru in Plano. The spouse of the manager is a very talented professional pet photographer and she offers professional shoots to the public at no cost. Donations are encouraged and go 100% to the non profit. These events are usually scheduled around holidays. We operate on a shoestring and this event coupled with the very generous check we receive from the dealership has allowed us to easily reach our fundraising goals for the past three years. Ewing Subaru in Plano really "walks the walk" in their support of the local non profit community, especially animal related entities. We are so grateful to Ewing Subaru, the Gadens and all the folks at the dealership who make this such a fun and profitable event.
Hope's Door New Beginning Center is a 501c3 nonprofit serving Greater DFW, Dallas and Collin counties in Texas, Our mission is to provide safety and services to those affected by family violence. We have two emergency shelters providing safety for up to 54 women and children at a time. Often those we shelter come with very little in the way of personal belongings as many must flee to safety with little time to pack. Ewing Subaru has been a wonderful supporter of our shelters. They provided blankets one winter and most recently provided four boxes of new socks for the women and children we serve in our shelters. This may not seem like a big deal for those of us who do not have to worry about clean socks but to someone who has so little, a new pair of sock means so much! We want to share this story and raise awareness about the compassion Subaru has for those in need in the community. We are most grateful for their support.
I would watch Vet Ranch on YouTube every Saturday morning and I loved following each animal’s story. One day I checked out the Abandoned Pet Project’s website and saw Happy. He was a precious little thing listed as a fospice due to heart issues from heartworms, and I was worried that would make him less adoptable. A few weeks later Abandoned Pet Project had an adoption event near me. I decided to stop in quickly to see Happy in person. And that sealed the deal! He really is happy. His tail is always wagging and he loves giving kisses. I brought him home a couple weeks later and he fit in seamlessly. Now it feels like he’s always been a part of the family. Despite having minor heart issues, he is having the time of his life playing with his dog siblings and cuddling with me. Thank you Ewing Subaru Of Plano, Vet Ranch and Abandoned Pet Project for saving Happy’s life!

The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of North Texas had the amazing pleasure to partner together with Ewing Subaru on June 26 for their Subaru Loves to Care Program. As one of 8 neighborhood retailers, Ewing delivered 80 blankets and 10 arts and crafts kits to Texas Oncology Plano West, while also conveying hope, warmth, and uplifting words of encouragement to those currently being treated and battling for their lives. Each blanket came along with a personal note of hope written by the customers and staff of Ewing that the patients absolutely loved reading. The Subaru staff personally handed out these blankets and chatted for a few minutes getting to know each patient. The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of North Texas is beyond appreciative for the kindness and commitment of Ewing Subaru not only for our mission but also to those in our local community. Seeing the joy on patients’ faces as the blankets were personally delivered was extremely rewarding and heartwarming. We are honored to collaborate with an organization that offers back to the absolute most meriting individuals and carries light to the darkness of a cancer diagnosis.
