Subaru's Love for the Tampa Bay Community

Imagine facing a school day without a proper pair of shoes or even socks to rely on. For far too many children across our community, this is their everyday experience. Subaru South Tampa, through their commitment to the Subaru Love Promise, stepped in to change that reality for dozens of youth served by Friends of the Children Tampa Bay. On January 31, 2026, Subaru South Tampa partnered with Operation Warm®, a national nonprofit dedicated to providing essential clothing items to children who need them most. Through this partnership, Subaru South Tampa donated 132 pairs of shoes and socks—a gift that provides far more than physical comfort. These items help ensure children stay warm, dry, and protected, but they also deliver something equally important: confidence, dignity, and the emotional reassurance that their community cares about them. For the children in our long‑term mentorship program, receiving brand‑new shoes is more than a moment of generosity—it is a reminder that they are valued and supported as they work toward stability, academic success, and emotional well‑being. Many of our youth face significant obstacles, and having reliable essentials helps them show up to school and activities ready to learn, participate, and thrive. We are deeply grateful for Subaru South Tampa's dedication to spreading warmth, kindness, and hope. Their support through Operation Warm® demonstrates the heart of the Subaru Love Promise—showing up for local children, investing in their futures, and strengthening the community we all share. Because of Subaru South Tampa, 132 children are stepping forward with comfort, confidence, and the knowledge that they matter.

Subaru Retailers Team Up to Support Hurricane Relief Efforts

At Subaru South Tampa, we’re always ready to step up and support our communities, especially in times of crisis. This commitment is at the heart of the Subaru Love Promise®. When Hurricanes Helene and Milton devastated the Eastern region, Subaru retailers like us immediately sprang into action. Alongside other Subaru retailers, Subaru of America, and local organizations, we assessed the most urgent needs in the affected areas. It quickly became clear that local food banks were struggling to keep up with the surge in demand as they worked to support people hit hardest by the storms. In response, we teamed up with 67 Subaru retailers across the region to launch a $400,000 match campaign to aid the hurricane relief efforts of Feeding America®. Subaru South Tampa proudly contributed $10000 to this initiative. While the immediate impact of the storms fades from the headlines, many of our neighbors continue to face long-term challenges like food insecurity, water shortages, power outages, and limited access to essential services. Thanks to the collective generosity of Subaru retailers and the communities we serve, an additional $18,427 was raised. This brings the total impact to $418,427, or over 4,100,000 meals for those in need. "As one of the nation's largest disaster relief organizations, the Feeding America network of food banks and partner agencies is deeply rooted in communities across the country. Together, our partnership with trusted Subaru dealers has helped expedite emergency food assistance and supplies to people who need it most. We are immensely grateful," said Feeding America Chief Development Officer Casey Marsh.

Community Helps Fill A Forester Full of Needed Supplies for Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center

Subaru South Tampa was proud to Fill A Forester for the Hillsborough Pet Resource Center with supplies they desperately needed. The Pet Resource Center was affected by both Hurricanes Helene and Milton, and they have been at capacity with both displaced animals and animals whose owners could no longer afford their care. When delivering the supplies, the team met Beauty, a nine-year-old terrier that was adopted and returned to the shelter through no fault of her own. We collected both food for the shelter and food for their Pet Pantry that is open to the public to help struggling owners feed their pets, so they are not forced to surrender them. Subaru South Tampa Loves Pets!

Hurricane Helene Didn't Stop Homeless Dogs and Cats from Finding Furever Homes!

Just days after being hit by Hurricane Helene, Subaru South Tampa celebrated October's Subaru Loves Pets ® Month by hosting an adoption event in our showroom. We considered postponing to give the community time to clean up and recover from the storm. The shelter asked that we keep the date as they were at capacity with homeless animals. We are thrilled to say that the community "Made A Dog's Day" for the animals at the event! Our shelter partner, the Mercy Full Project brought almost 20 dogs and one sweet cat and there were over 20 appointments made by adopters to come and meet them! In addition, through Subaru's partnership with the ASPCA, Subaru South Tampa was able to provide Pet Alliance a $4000 grant to help them get homeless animals the care they need to be ready for their furever homes. All adopters also went home with Subaru Loves Pets New Pet Kits, and everyone went home with an ice cream treat, a BBQ lunch and a "Chewbaru" squeaky dog toy. Subaru South Tampa Loves Pets!

Hands On Education @Subaru South Tampa

Hands On Education is a state-funded vocational training program for individuals with disABILITIES. We provide 80-hour paid internships, to expose our students to the world of work, and an opportunity to gain Hands On experience in various industries. Earlier this year, we approached the service manager, Justin Beauregard, about a young man who was participating in a high school auto repair program. Justin had hosted several of our Hands On Interns in the past, but never turning wrenches in the service department. Justin could immediately smell what we are cooking in the Hands On kitchen. He met with Chris, even though Chris was only 17 at the time. Justin was not concerned about Chris' speech impediment, he simply stated "come back to see me when you are 18 and have your driver's license". Chris was excited about the opportunity to put his schooling into practice, especially at a Subaru retailer, where they service horizontally opposed boxer engines :) Chris waited patiently, and turned 18 in May. We met with Justin and scheduled a date to begin his paid summer internship. The Express Team welcomed Chris with open arms, and he realized that this service department was more like a family. His mother states that "Chris is over the moon about this unique opportunity", and you can see that joy in the big smile on his face. Justin even plans to work around Chris' school schedule during his senior year, preparing him for a full-time career with Subaru South Tampa. Thank you to Justin, the Express Team, and Subaru South Tampa for supporting our community-based program and the individuals we collectively serve. We LOVE that you are focused on Chris's strengths, and not his limitations. You sell and service exceptional Subaru vehicles and you are definitely making a difference in the Tampa Bay community. Welcoming Chris into your family is what LOVE is all about.

My hurricane hero!

In the month of September 2022, my family and I had a very bad experience through Hurricane Ian which had me on the hunt for a new car. I looked at many different cars at many different places. These places all had very basic customer service with not many cars that peaked my interest. When I arrived at Subaru of South Tampa, I was greeted by very welcoming staff and a sales representative with a determination to help and provide me with a new car that ticked all my boxes. Joseph Misco, my hurricane hero, was amazing. We found my Subaru WRX 2019 and I knew it was the right car for me. My parents had a flight the next day and it was necessary for me to leave Subaru with a new car. My parents reside and were currently in Naples, FL, which I assumed would cause issues as they wanted the car in their name as well. Joe suggested that we could drive to Naples to fill out the paperwork, which was unbelievable. Joseph putting in the extra effort and time meant that I could fulfil the need to get my new car! He was excited and eager to help and was willing to go the extra mile or in this case, 300 miles.

Adoption event at Subaru South Tampa

Back on October 23rd, 2022, Subaru allowed Mercy Full Project Animal Rescue at their South Tampa location where we brought over 15 dogs that were rescued and ready to find their forever homes.

Yogi was very sick and needed immediate care to address his pancreatitis and get his glucose levels under control. After a week long stay at the vet and follow ups, Yogi was ready to be adopted into a new family. Without partnerships like with Subaru South Tampa, Heidi's Legacy Rescue couldn't save as many dogs and cats in the Tampa Bay area.

Because of the partnership with Subaru South Tampa and the Subaru Loves Pets Event in October, Mocha and other pets like her were able to have much needed medical care and find a forever home.
