Wheeling Subaru Recycling Program - a b
As a certified Eco-friendly retailer, the whole staff here at Wheeling Subaru takes pride great pride in being environmentally friendly. This year we have coupled with the great people at Belco Works Inc. to safely and securely recycle our yearly document purge. Thousands of pages that once were simply destroyed will now be recycled and reused. Belco Works, a local non profit business that offers employment opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities, Document Destruction provides a way for businesses and individuals to dispose of and recycle unwanted records and excess paperwork. Confidential collection, shredding and disposal of business and personal documents lets you safeguard information, avoid identify theft, and comply with Federal regulations like HIPAA. Locked security containers at your location provide a secure place for files until we pick them up for destruction and recycling.

Just for Kidz Toy Drive - Caitlin R
Thank you to Wheeling Subaru for your continued support. The Soup Kitchen of Greater Wheeling's Just for Kidz program provides holiday gifts to children of the Soup Kitchen. The children receive four to five brand new outfits, a new pair of shoes (or two) and at least five (usually more) items from their "wish list" they fill out. This year over two hundred children received holiday gifts, clothes and shoes. All of this is made possible with the help of Wheeling Subaru's toy drive. Thank you Wheeling Subaru for your continued support of the children here at the Soup Kitchen!

Wheeling Subaru Does it Again!!! - Phyllis R
To Dave Weaver and Staff at Wheeling Subaru – How can we begin to thank all of you once again for your dedication, your kindness, and generosity – helping the American Red Cross with their mission to save lives. Since the last time I submitted a Love Promise, we continued to come to Wheeling Subaru to set up our blood drives, disturbing the Show Room, without complaints by anyone, and collecting live-saving blood products to those patients in need. Not once, when needed, do I get a NO – it is always ANYTHING WE CAN DO TO HELP! THANK YOU DAVE WEAVER, YOU ARE A TRUE LIFE-SAVER! During our recent blood drive, we collected 34 units, helping to save the lives of approximately 102 patients in need. We are scheduled for 5 more drives in 2022, those drives will be met with the same understanding that we are all in this together. Our blood donors who regularly come to Wheeling Subaru are met with respect and kindness, and love coming to this business, blood drive after blood drive. Our staff is happy to come to this venue, it is no easy feat for this business to welcome us with open arms, disturbing their day, setting up bulky equipment and beds, and giving up their own life-saving blood! Our staff loves this business and Wheeling Subaru makes their day easier, as staff is under guidelines to mask, sanitize, and social distance. We love our partnership with Wheeling Subaru, and hope to come back year after year for the greater good of all of us. Sincerely,Phyllis Riccadonna/ Account ll ManagerAmerican Red Cross Blood Services
Blankets! - Ashlie K
Wheeling Subaru provided blankets to The Salvation Army. Because of this donation, we provided blankets to a local HUD Housing Complex for all residents in need. We have also been able to provide to many other individuals in the community. Thank you, Subaru, for helping keep our community warm!
Outstanding - Mandy O
Wheeling Subaru hosted an adoption event partnering with our local animal shelter, Marshall County Animal Shelter, and it was by far the best event. The staff went above and beyond to make every animal comfortable. What pulls at our heartstrings, is how Subaru pushes to find homes for the underdogs. It is one thing to help shelters, but Subaru looks at the underdogs and helping them find a home. This is a company that cares about animals. We had two cat adoptions, two dogs adopted after the event and so many donations. We look forward to working with this amazing organization in the future.
American Red Cross Blood Drives - Phyllis R
The American Red Cross is grateful to Dave Weaver, and the staff at Wheeling Subaru for their generosity during the darkest hours of blood donations. During the initial shutdown of Covid last year, the Red Cross had to cancel thousands of blood drives overnight, leaving us without sponsors and venues to host blood drives. The blood drives were canceled in schools, universities, and businesses .I contacted Dave Weaver to ask, if at all possible, could we come to the Showroom of Wheeling Subaru, with Covid restrictions in place – masking, sanitizing, etc. to hold a blood drive in an attempt to keep the inventory going to our hospitals for patients in need. Not only did Dave Weaver say yes, this blood drive has continued for over a year, and without hesitation, we are welcome with open arms and kindness. To date, the American Red Cross has collected 530 units of blood at this venue, helping to save the lives of approximately 1,590 patients in need. Our gratitude, appreciation, and love goes out to Dave Weaver and the staff at Wheeling Subaru for everything you have done for the American Red Cross with our mission in helping to save the lives. Not only do the patients in need benefit from the generosity, but their families who love them, are able to continue to have hope and enjoy their loved ones. THANKS AGAIN FROM THE AMERICAN RED CROSS, DAVE WEAVER & STAFF! Phyllis Riccadonna Account II ManagerAmerican Red Cross(304) 989-9929
