Subaru "Shares the Love" with Nature

 

NICHES Land Trust received $27,000 from this year's Subaru Share the Love event! Subaru and participating retailers like Zeigler Subaru of Lafayette have donated more than $288 million to charity over the past 16 years! NICHES is honored to be one of two local charities supported by Subaru's 2024 Share the Love event. (Our friends at Food Finders Food BankFood Finders Food Bank are the other local nonprofit that receives this wonderful sponsorship gift!) Members of the Zeigler Auto Group team stopped by Clegg Memorial Garden to present NICHES with this year's contribution last week (pictured above).

According to Subaru's press release:
"Since 2008, Subaru of America and its retailers have held the Share the Love Event at the end of the year through the holiday season to give back to charities in the communities Subaru retailers know and love. From November 16, 2023, through January 2, 2024, for any new vehicle purchased or leased at every retailer around the country, Subaru and its retailers donated a minimum of $300 to charity...Subaru and its retailers nationwide selected 832 hometown charities within their local communities, and overall, these organizations received a record $24 million in contributions."

In addition to financially supporting NICHES, the employees from Zeigler Subaru of Lafayette regularly volunteer for land stewardship activities. The relationship, which originally began during Bob Rohrman's ownership, has continued to grow even while the retail store has changed hands. NICHES is incredibly grateful for Zeigler Subaru's continued commitment to nature and support of our organization.

NICHES would also like to give a big 'thank you' to folks who purchased a car during this year's Share the Love event – you helped raise $27,000 for nature!
