Wood County Committee on Aging Inc. has announced that a $3,723 grant has been received for a partnership
with local Subaru dealerships.
Employees from LaRiche Subaru in Findlay and Yark Subaru in Toledo assisted with the delivery of home
delivered lunches during the 2018 holiday season. For the 11th year, Subaru has donated $250 for every
new vehicle sold or leased to the customer’s choice of participating charity through this event and
Meals on Wheels America members, like WCCOA, received a share of the revenue raised by Subaru in their
state.
“With the help of Subaru and MOWA we are able to raise awareness of the importance of a hot, nutritious
meal to our older, frail clients. These meals and drivers provide nourishment and happiness to the older
adults we serve,” said Angie Bradford, WCCOA’s director of food service.
The Share the Love Event has helped to deliver more than 2.2 million meals to homebound seniors around
the country, and Subaru and its participating retailers have donated over $140 million through this
event.
