Helping Children Thrive!! - Teresa C
AutoNation Subaru Spokane Valley has been a longtime supporter of the life-changing work done at Joya Child & Family Development, a Spokane nonprofit that has been supporting infants and toddlers with developmental delays and disabilities for 65 years. Joya was thrilled to be the recipient of the Share the Love event this year and got to celebrate the incredible generosity of AutoNation Subaru Spokane Valley when the team presented Joya with a big check (literally and figuratively!) during Joya’s Annual Telethon on KHQ TV this spring. The donation makes a huge difference in the lives of hundreds of children and families in the Spokane community who are often facing dire diagnoses at birth. Children like Marina, who was born with Down syndrome and had to have open heart surgery at 6 months of age. Early on, her parents wondered if she would ever be able to walk or be healthy enough to interact with those around her. Marina started with Joya at 9 months of age, receiving speech, feeding, occupational and physical therapies in home. As she got older, Marina was able to join a toddler group at Joya where she really started to thrive, learning not only from her therapists, but from her special education teacher and other children as well. Marina’s parents can’t imagine where she’d be without Joya, saying “Joya has truly made all the difference in Marina’s life in numerous ways.” Joya’s Executive Director Colleen Fuchs says the generosity of places like AutoNation Subaru Spokane Valley is critical. “It makes it possible for Joya to provide such comprehensive care to families, no matter their financial situation. Joya never turns families away for inability to pay. We want them to focus on what their child needs to grow and thrive, not on how they are going to pay the bills.” Thanks to the amazingly generous and kind-hearted team at AutoNation Subaru Spokane Valley for partnering with Joya to make such an impact in our community!
Sweet Moments and Sweet Treats – Troop 2442 Visits AutoNation Subaru - Joshua A
As part of our Subaru Love Promise commitment to supporting and celebrating our community, AutoNation Subaru recently had the joy of welcoming a very special guest during one of our dealership events. Lizzy from Girl Scouts of Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho Troop 2446 stopped by to spend the day with us—and she didn’t come empty-handed. With a bright smile and a generous heart, Lizzy shared Girl Scout Cookies with our customers, creating a fun and memorable experience for everyone who walked through our doors. Customers were greeted with the classic favorites—from Thin Mints to Samoas—as Lizzy graciously offered cookies and shared the mission of the Girl Scouts. Her presence brought an extra layer of warmth to the event and reminded us all of the impact young leaders can have when given the chance to connect with their community. The Love Promise is about more than giving back—it’s about coming together. Whether it’s planting trees, supporting local students, or simply sharing a cookie and a kind word, moments like these are what drive us to do more and be more for the people we serve. A heartfelt thank-you to Lizzy and Troop 2442 for blessing our space with sweetness, generosity, and genuine joy. You truly embody the spirit of the Subaru Love Promise.
