A&T Subaru and The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Eastern PA-Delaware are proud to once again come together through the Subaru Loves to Care initiative, delivering warmth, comfort, and encouragement to cancer patients at Grand View Health.
A&T Subaru donated 80 customized heart-shaped blankets along with patient care kits and heartfelt messages of hope written by customers and team members. These items are thoughtfully selected to provide both physical and emotional support to patients during treatment.
“Our partnership with LLS and local healthcare provider Grand View Health reflects our deep commitment to our community,” said Jeff Allen, President of A&T Subaru. “These donations are a reminder to patients that they are not alone and that their neighbors are standing with them during a difficult journey.”
The Subaru Loves to Care program was created to support those facing the emotional and physical toll of cancer. Each blanket provides warmth while each care kit includes small comforts tailored to patients’ needs and every message of hope serves as a personal expression of care from the community.
“These donations mean the world to our patients,” said Mark Horne, Senior Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer, Grand View Health. “They help lift spirits during an incredibly difficult time and we are grateful to A&T Subaru and LLS for their continued compassion and generosity.”
Since 2016, Subaru and its retailers have supported nearly 350,000 cancer patients nationwide through the Subaru Loves to Care initiative. The program has delivered more than 167,000 blankets and 21,500 arts and crafts kits to over 780 hospitals and treatment centers across the country.
“Our partnership with A&T Subaru brings LLS’s mission to life, improving the quality of life for blood cancer patients and their families,” said Megan Haegley, Campaign Development Manager at LLS Eastern PA-Delaware. “Together, we are working toward a future where every patient feels supported and seen.”
The community is invited to stop by the A&T Subaru showroom at 801 Bethlehem Pike in Sellersville to write a personal message of encouragement to a cancer patient. Digital messages can also be submitted by visiting www.lls.org/subaru.
Together, A&T Subaru and LLS Eastern PA-Delaware remain united in spreading hope, one blanket, one care kit, and one heartfelt message at a time.
