Harrison County Animal Control - Jared C.

In the beginning of July we, Harrison County Animal Control, were contacted by Rebecca Spencer the Marketing Director of the Neil Huffman from the Louisville Kentucky and Clarksville Indiana areas. Rebecca asked us if we would be interested in participating in the Subaru Loves Pets event through the month of October. We were thrilled to have been asked and of course we agreed to be a part of such a great event by a great auto maker. Through the month of October we ran a special on cat and dog adoptions in honor of the Subaru Loves Pets event. We were able to get several cats and dogs adopted to great homes during October. We did have one dog in particular that we picked up in the county from a possible neglect case. We named this dog Mo. Mo came to us barely able to even hold her head up, she had almost no hair, her nails were so long she could not walk properly, she had been so stressed that she developed a skin condition that contributed to her losing her hair. We began right away trying to get her back to health. We bathed her, trimmed her nails, and loved on her the whole time. We put her on a food regiment to get her up to weight. Within the next few weeks she gained weight, her hair started growing back, and her love for people and life came back. As part of the adoption special we ran during October, Mo was adopted out to an amazing home and is doing so well. We were so happy to be a part of the Subaru Loves Pets month and are extremely grateful for Neil Huffman Subaru for nominating us to participate in the event. We at Harrison County Animal Control strive to protect the animals and people of our community in the best ways possible. We have included a before and after photo of Mo the great Pyrenees.

Supplies for Baptist Hospital Cancer Center - Rebecca S.

As part of the commitment to support the health and well-being of our community, Neil Huffman Subaru team members recently delivered blankets to cancer patients at Baptist Health Cancer Care. The donation is part of the national Subaru Loves to Care® initiative with longtime partner, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society® - Kentucky & South-Central Ohio. Every three minutes in the U.S., a new patient is diagnosed with leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma. As the treatment process is often long and arduous, patients are left feeling cold, confined, and in a weakened state. The donation of warm blankets and messages of encouragement is just one way Neil Huffman Subaru strives to be More Than a Car Dealer for the Louisville, KY community.

Neil Huffman Subaru is located on the one of the busiest roads in Louisville - Dixie Highway - and unfortunately sees the waste byproducts of thousands of vehicles a day including items such as cups, wrappers, napkins, and papers. Team Huffman takes pride in the beautification of Dixie Highway, which has recently seen the addition of medians planted with native trees and grasses.

Feeding the Community - Pastor Rodney C.

The Mount Horeb Baptist Church is a community church. We sit right in the middle of an inner-city neighborhood. All throughout the year we offer resources to the people of our community as well as the homeless population in the Louisville area. This year during the Thanksgiving season, Mount Horeb and Neil Huffman Subaru joined together to serve hot meals to the community surrounding the church as well as the homeless population in downtown Louisville. With Neil Huffman's generous donation we were able to feed more families than we have in the history of our program. We connected with over 200 families this year and it would not have been possible without the support of Neil Huffman Subaru. Thank you for your support and commitment to be a servant leader in the community. God bless.

Billy Bones Finds Forever Home Thanks to Subaru - Megan D.

Billy Bones is the true definition of an underdog! This beautiful, two-year-old Terrier mix arrived at the Kentucky Humane Society needing emergency medical care. Billy Bones had sustained an injury to his paw in the past and the injured paw was bandaged too tightly by someone, causing Billy to be so uncomfortable that he began chewing on his leg in an attempt to get the bandage off. Unfortunately, Billy's chewing led to more damage to the leg and he had to undergo an emergency leg amputation to save his life. In addition to his leg injury, Billy was covered in old scars and showed signs of living a very hard life prior to his arrival at the Kentucky Humane Society. Despite this, Billy was one of the sweetest dogs we had ever met and he didn't let his past define him! He learned to walk with three legs and he did it with a bright smile and a happy tail wag. It came time for Billy to go up for adoption and our incredible friends at Subaru sponsored his adoption fee so he could be adopted for a reduced adoption fee of $100. We hoped this would help Billy Bones find his forever family faster and it worked! After being on Great Day Live with the amazing team at Neil Huffman Subaru, Billy Bones was seen by the Byrd family who knew they could give him all the love he's been missing. They adopted him and we couldn't be more grateful to both his new family and to the amazing people at Subaru for helping make the connection happen. Thank you Subaru!

Sharing the Love w/ KY Kids & Families @ Maryhurst - Patrick B.

Over the past several years, Neil Huffman Subaru has included Maryhurst as a hometown charity during their annual Share the Love campaign. The results have been extraordinary: tens of thousands of dollars have been raised to bring hope, wellbeing and resilience to local children and families. Funds raised during Share the Love have equated to 100s of hours of therapeutic sessions, dozens of college campus visits, and critically important clothing & personal care items for 50+ youth entering in the foster care system. Along the way, Neil Huffman Subaru have been active partners in the work, making personal clothing donations and visiting our facilities to learn more about our work. We love the impact our partnership is able to bring to our community!

Emily - Jaime T.

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, families with school-age children have been hit especially hard. It's through the support of the community, donors, and corporations like Subaru that we at Feeding America, Kentucky's Heartland in Elizabethtown, Ky., can hold mobile food pantries and distribute food to people who just need a little help. Recently single mom Emily visited one of our mobile pantries to pick up a box of food. She is raising her three children - ages 8, 6 and 2 - while working full time. "I don't have much family around," Emily said. "I work full time and just got a promotion, but because of that promotion I lost food stamps. Food is hard for us - it's so expensive." Thank you to Subaru for helping us support families like Emily's!

Donation to Rhonda’s Another Chance - Monda P.

We can’t thank you enough for your recent and timely donation of 80 fleece blankets! We networked with four other agencies who serve the Louisville, Kentucky homeless and they’re very appreciative of your donation.

Brad Finds His Happily-Ever-After! - Megan D.

Nine-year-old Brad came to the Kentucky Humane Society very sad and out of sorts. We could tell he wasn't used to shelter life and desperately wanted to go home. This awesome couple came in to meet one of our younger dogs but could hear Brad crying and howling from his kennel. They discovered that Brad had been sponsored by our friends at Neil Huffman Subaru and they asked if they could meet him. Upon meeting him, Brad quickly changed their minds about adopting anyone but him. He matches the pace of their resident dog perfectly and loved getting belly rubs. They were a perfect match! The support from our friends at Subaru made this wonderful home possible and now this amazing senior dog will spend the rest of his days being spoiled. We are so happy for Brad and so happy to partner with this amazing group who made this happy ending happen!

The Best Retailer in the Nation - Jerry S.

Neil Huffman Subabru goes beyond being a Retailer. I helped my daughter buy an Outback from them in 2019. They all treated her with respect and made her very comfortable with the process. They treated her, and still do, as their own daughter and have continually looked out for her best interest. When I needed a new vehicle I called them and they treated me like family as well. I explained what kind of 2020 Outback I would like and got a video of one that I eventually acquired. They checked it over and made sure everything was in good shape. All I had to do was show up, practice safe distancing, sign papers and drive away. Follow-ups have been courteous and non-annoying. I am recommending them to everyone that comments on my beautiful new Outback, and even those that do not comment.
