Grateful - Candace L
Imagine going without a coat, shoes, or even socks. For millions of children and adults experiencing homelessness and other urgent need situations across the country, this is the reality. Wheeling Subaru partnered with Operation Warm®, a national nonprofit focused on connecting children with the resources they need to thrive. On 2026-01-12, Wheeling Subaru donated 132 Coats to The Salvation Army Wheeling Corps. These essential items not only help keep children protected, warm, and dry, it has a significant impact on a child's mental and emotional well-being. At The Salvation Army Wheeling Corps, we are so grateful for this gift that will help so many in our community.

Through Just for Kidz, we serve families facing food insecurity by providing weekly meals, school supplies, clothing, and personalized holiday support for children throughout the year.

🐾 *Baby's Sweet New Beginning: Love After a Lifetime of Waiting* 💕 - abby b
When *Baby* came to us, her tiny body told the story of a long, rough road. At over *12 years old* and weighing just *a little over 5 pounds*, she was covered in fleas and scabs, her fur was thin, and she was missing several teeth — the rest loose and worn with age. But beneath all that, we could see a gentle soul just waiting for comfort and love. After flea treatments, soft meals, and lots of TLC, Baby began to heal — her skin soothed, her eyes brightened, and her purrs returned. She soon earned herself a promotion to *office cat*, where she quickly made herself at home. She found every soft, cozy spot to curl up in and would occasionally wake from her naps just long enough to greet visitors with a quiet meow or a hopeful glance. More than anything, Baby just wanted a warm lap to nap in and a heart to call her own. For two months, she waited patiently — often overlooked because of her age. But then, her moment came. The *perfect person* walked through our doors and saw her not for her years, but for her sweetness. It was love at first sight. Now, Baby is spending her golden years exactly as she deserves — *safe, adored, and surrounded by warmth.* From a frail, flea-covered senior to a cherished family member, Baby's story is a reminder that love has no age limit. 🐱💖

Thank you to Wheeling Subaru and their staff for all they do to help provide the space, the employee donors, and the courtesy given to each and every blood drive.

Wheeling Subaru as a major champion of Wheeling's FidoFest - Hilary K

Subaru Loves the Earth Event - Amy P
I was thrilled to have the opportunity to get a free, flowering Serviceberry tree from Wheeling Subaru! I love that the dealership partnered with the Arbor Day Foundation to create this event! The preservation and care for our environment is of tremendous importance to me, and makes me love my Subaru Impreza that much more! I’m proud to drive a vehicle made by a company that sees beyond its own bottom line, and does so much to give back to the communities they are in. It’s a rare level of commitment and compassion in today’s world for a company to be so giving. Thank you to Wheeling Subaru, it’s staff, and my fellow ‘Subarubians’ for making this all happen!!

Keeping Warm - Candace L
This year, The Salvation Army distributed many coats to children within the area. Without the coats, many children would be cold going to school this season. A family in particular was truly grateful for the opportunity to come in and receive a coat for her boys. They could not wait to wear them to school the next day! We want to THANK Wheeling Subaru for the donation of coats that helped us serve the families in the community. We look forward to next year!
