June marked Subaru Loves to Care month, Jenkins Subaru in Bridgeport has partnered with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) to bring warmth to cancer survivors being treated at United Hospital Center (UHC). Through their generosity, 80 blankets and totes were recently donated locally.

 

Those who have visited the Subaru retailer were able to show their support by providing personalized messages of love and hope to be delivered alongside the blankets and craft kits. In order to continue to spread awareness about the Subaru Love to Care cause, those who wrote the messages received an awareness bracelet.

 

“This kind gesture makes a huge difference and warms the hearts of our patients, as well as puts a smile on their faces during the most trying of times,” said Gretchen Hennigan, RN, OCN, clinical navigator at UHC Cancer Center. “I want to personally thank Jenkins Subaru and LLS for conveying such care and hope to those who need it most.”

 

Subaru retailers and the LLS joined together to deliver 38,000 blankets through the Subaru Loves to Care initiative for cancer survivors across the country.  Jenkins Subaru is West Virginia’s largest volume Subaru dealer and is located at 750 Lodgeville Rd, in Bridgeport.

 “Jenkins Subaru and Subaru of America are happy to have made this gift possible. UHC and its staff are highly valued assets to the community and state, and we have enjoyed working with them once again to spread our message of care and love to the cancer survivors of the region,” said Aaron Kittle, marketing director at Jenkins Subaru.
